Hi I’m Tara Lucke


Estate planning lawyer turned educator.

I’m still a registered lawyer however I don’t work with Mum and Dad clients anymore. Law firms are my clients.

I spent over 10 years working in private practice as an estate planning lawyer until my glorious career came to a screeching halt after hitting burnout. I took a year long career break, dove head first into the world of digital marketing and education, and started spreading the word about the importance of Testamentary Trusts for everyday Australians.

My message resonated with a lot of lawyers who wanted to know how they could start offering Testamentary Trusts to their clients.

It’s a great question.

How is anyone meant to know how to draft Testamentary Trust wills if they hadn’t learnt it on the job?

Especially if you were a sole practitioner or the most senior principal in their firm.

I decided that I couldn’t lecture from the front without offering a solution when it came time to deliver.

So, we packaged up our Testamentary Trust precedents with extensive user notes and automation.

Created an on-demand video library answering common FAQs and How Tos, and an online course that is quite literally The Essential Guide to Testamentary Trusts for Australian Lawyers.

And coupled that with the TT Precedents Club – weekly live coaching where precedent users can ask their questions about the documents, workshop client examples and seek our help for drafting support and strategy guidance.

With Quality precedents + Mentoring + Group Testing + Regular Updates we found the winning formula and created a precedent offering like nothing else on the market.

What our members have to say about The Art of Estate Planning...

"Your positivity, enthusiasm, and ability to relate to others as an equal (*all the while holding and sharing your extraordinary legal experience, expertise knowledge and skills) have been the driving lead and example for the TT Precedents Club & Art Estate Planning communities – and what you have inspired, fostered and built through your hard work and passion has had a ripple effect that I hope you are able to feel coming back to you as life-giving, humanity-affirming, profession enhancing, unselfish legal community building, joyful gratitude!!"

- Colleen, Lawyer

"I’m so glad I found The Art of Estate Planning, I’d always wanted to set up a practice focused solely on Wills & Estates, but not having practised in the area it was looking daunting, and in desperation I’d signed up for a Masters program in Will & Estates and our lecturer recommended your podcast. I can honesty say it has been such a ray of sunshine and given me the confidence to bring forward my plans to start a practice this year."

- Kit, Lawyer

"I really appreciate the community you’ve created and have been very encouraged over the past couple of years. It is also really a godsend for women who have been out of fulltime practice having kids, but who can catch up through the terrific resources, dialogue and business-oriented strategy."

- Alithea, Lawyer

"Thank you for always supporting me and providing such a wonderful platform to mentor me and give me the knowledge and confidence to keep growing the firm and myself professionally. I appreciate you being in my world so much."

- Ange, AJT Law

"I can say without hesitation of a doubt if it wasn’t for you and the TT Precedents Club I’d never have had the courage to go out on my own. Honestly, I can’t thank you enough."

- Kit, Lawyer

"Since leaving a big firm and starting on my own joining the TT Club has been the best decision. Such a knowledgeable group of passionate estate planning lawyers and the best suite of precedents which are updated at least once a year so no need to worry about out of date Wills etc."

- Eileen, Lawyer

"I was just sitting here and I just wanted to say a heartfelt thank you to you for creating the TT precedents club and for all the incredible resources and support you provide. As a sole practitioner, I have found it so helpful and reassuring to be part of this community. I really appreciate all that you do so thank you!"

- Andrea, Lawyer

"Just wanted to say a massive thank you and what an incredible club the TT club is. I have learnt so much and have felt so supported by you both and the members. My confidence with TT’s and meeting with clients has improved significantly since being in the TT club. I always recommend colleagues to check out the Art of Estate Planning and TT club."

- Teressa, Lawyer

"I just wanted to express my gratitude for everything you do. It’s been a month since I launched my firm, and I can’t begin to describe how invaluable the TT Club and your precedent packs have been. They’ve given me so much confidence as a sole practitioner, and I’ve never felt so supported – thank you!"

- Andrea, Lawyer

"I think the love for the Art of Estate Planning comes from their really comprehensive documents that are widely regarded by estate planning practitioners as best in class.  In addition to the precedents, they also run a subscription-based membership which has a Facebook group and a weekly Q&A session via Zoom for tricky drafting queries that may have arisen for group members during the week."
