FAQs

Your Legal Queries Answered - Wills and Estate Planning Simplified

What is the difference between a will and an estate plan?

A will is a document that specifies how your assets should be distributed upon your death. An estate plan, on the other hand, encompasses a wider range of preparations including wills, trusts, powers of attorney, and healthcare directives to ensure comprehensive management and transfer of your estate.

Why do I need a lawyer to draft my will?

Having a lawyer draft your will ensures that it complies with legal standards and truly reflects your wishes. This can prevent future legal challenges and ensure that your estate is handled as you intended.

Can I just create a power of attorney myself?

While DIY forms are available, a lawyer can ensure that all aspects are correctly tailored to your specific circumstances and needs, providing additional legal validity and peace of mind.

What is probate, and do I need it for my estate?

Probate is the legal process through which a deceased persons will is validated by the court. Whether its necessary depends on the nature and size of the estate. Our lawyers can help determine if probate is required for your situation and assist in navigating the process.

How can a trust benefit my estate plan?

Trusts can be used to manage your assets during your lifetime and beyond, offering benefits like reducing estate taxes, protecting assets from creditors, and ensuring financial support for minors or special-needs dependents according to your specific instructions.

What happens if I die without a will?

If you die intestate (without a will), your assets will be distributed according to provincial law, which may not reflect your personal wishes. This often results in lengthy legal processes and potential family disputes. Creating a will helps to prevent this and ensures your assets are distributed according to your preferences.
