About Eddie Lees
Some years ago, during the course of building a successful superannuation/pension consultancy, I experienced a health challenge which had me in hospital. It was then that the shock reality hit me that if I didn't survive, while I knew where all our important family information and documentation was, my family didn't have a clue. Within a year, the consultancy was sold and, with a dedicated team, we created Now Sorted to fix the same challenge that just about every family faces. We have constantly enhanced Now Sorted for 14 years ... and always will.

And that’s why sound planning suggests that such contingencies should be part of a […]
