About GET Solutions
GET Solutions was established to help Western Australian families understand estate-planning decisions before choosing the documents intended to carry them out.
Geoff Tasker provides personal guidance throughout Mandurah and the Peel Region, with home visits as the preferred meeting method.
Geoff Tasker
Geoff is based in Mandurah and works directly with clients throughout Mandurah and the Peel Region.
His role is to help clients work through the practical questions behind their estate plan: who should act, what authority they should have, who should benefit and how the arrangements should continue working as circumstances change.
Home visits are preferred because they provide privacy, reduce unnecessary formality and create the right environment for careful family and estate-planning discussions.
Background and experience
Geoff’s approach to estate planning reflects experience gained across aviation, leadership, project management, business, technology and consulting.
A career as a pilot developed disciplined preparation, sound judgement, responsibility and the ability to work carefully with complex information.
Experience leading people, projects and organisations reinforced the importance of clear objectives, defined responsibilities and practical implementation.
Running information-technology businesses and working as a consultant required complex systems to be understood, explained and made workable for the people using them.
Geoff’s academic and professional background includes science, mathematics, aviation, business and management, supporting a structured approach to estate-planning decisions.
Qualifications and recognition
These qualifications and professional experiences support the analytical and disciplined way Geoff approaches complex estate-planning questions.
How Geoff works
No two families are identical. The process must be structured enough to identify important issues, but flexible enough to reflect the client’s actual circumstances.
The discussion starts with what the client wants to achieve, the people involved and the concerns that need to be addressed.
Options and consequences are explained in calm, plain English so the client understands what is being considered and why.
Wills, lifetime appointments, ownership, superannuation and trust arrangements are considered together rather than as unrelated documents.
Additional structure should be used only where it serves a genuine purpose and remains workable for the people expected to carry it out.
Where legal, financial, taxation or accounting advice is needed, that requirement is identified rather than hidden or overstated.
The objective is not simply to produce documents. The client should understand what they are signing, how the parts connect and what may happen later.
The GET Solutions philosophy
While a person has capacity, they remain in control. If they later need assistance, an Attorney or Enduring Guardian may act within the authority provided. After the person passes, the Executor carries out the Will. A Trustee may then continue managing an inheritance where a trust serves a clear purpose.
Different people, documents and asset pathways may operate at different stages. The aim is not to make everything follow the same route. It is to ensure each part has been considered and continues towards the intended outcome.
How does a complete estate plan work together? →Life changes. Circumstances change. The people carrying out your wishes may change. Your intentions shouldn’t.
Clear scope and boundaries
GET Solutions provides estate-planning guidance, document preparation and coordination within its service scope.
It is not a general legal, financial-planning, accounting or taxation practice. Matters involving complex disputes, family law, investment advice, taxation consequences or specialised legal structures may require advice from the appropriate professional.
Recognising when another adviser is required is part of careful planning. It does not prevent the different parts of the plan from being considered together.
