Power of Attorney consultation and drafting

In Ontario appointing a Power of Attorney for Personal Care or a Power of Attorney for Property is a key component of your estate plan. Appointing a Power of Attorney for Personal Care and for Property ensures someone you trust is making decisions for you. These decisions can include your health care, shelter, nutrition, clothing, safety, property, and finances. Working with a lawyer ensures your power of attorney documents are legally valid. In addition, you will be able to understand to what extent you give the power of control of your health and property to your appointed attorneys. You should be advised of how to terminate or to change an attorney if you are not satisfied of him or her, and the amount of compensation your appointed attorney is entitled to claim, etc.

Probate Applications

Probate can be very confusing for a lay person. In Ontario, the probate process is called an Application for a Certificate of Appointment of the Estate Trustee with or without a Will.

The probate process gives the executor or the estate trustee the legal authority to act for the deceased. However, it is not always clear what additional documents you must submit to the court to apply for probate.

As as estate lawyers, we can advise you on whether to apply for probate, ensure your probate application is filed and completed correctly, and answer your questions about the duties of an estate trustee.
