Often, we tend to forget about future planning because of the daily chores, but if it is about protecting your family and securing assets, then drafting a will should definitely be on top of your list. A will is not only about choosing a person who will receive your goods — it is mainly about the fact that your family will be there and there will be no confusion and even they will not be fighting coming to a decision, which will be a difficult time for them anyway.
We, at LexCounsel Professional Corporation, are quite aware of the fact that it is very hard and emotional to make decisions about the end of life. Therefore, our team of specialists who are very empathetic and understanding provides legal assistance that is tailored to your needs in the creation of a will, estate planning, and probate issues. We assist clients all over Mississauga and the Greater Toronto Area with honesty, professionalism, and warmth.
Why You Need a Will
Will is a legal document that directly states your intention of what to do with your property. Without a will your assets can be subject to redistribution in accordance with the intestacy laws of Ontario, which might end up being completely different from your personal wishes. Moreover, if there are no legal instructions, the courts will choose someone who will be in charge of your estate — this can be a very expensive and long procedure.
When a will is drafted, one is able to:
- Choose an executor that you are sure will do your job properly
- If your children are still very young, decide who will look after them.
- Inform the persons to whom you want to give distribute your real estate, securities, and personal paper what you want clearly.
- Make sure that the particular part of your inheritance will be left to the charity or persons you have
Understanding Probate and Estate Administration
Probate is the legal process of confirming a will and giving the executor the authority to handle the deceased’s property. In the event a will is ambiguous or no will is found, probate may be intricate and the survivors could be really upset.
LexCounsel supplies detailed instructions for executors and beneficiaries that allow them to:
- Apply for probate
- Find and value the assets
- Pay your debts or taxes if you have any left.
- Offer the property as the will specifies or as the court's instructions are.
- Deal with any contested claims or disputes
Our lawyers are talented in dealing with Ontario’s probate process promptly and accurately, and they will take care of you during a difficult period.
