Our Wills and Estates Expertise
Wills and Estates Practice Areas
We help individuals, families and business owners plan for the future and navigate the legal complexities that arise when a loved one passes. Whether you’re putting a plan in place, managing an estate or wanting one of our experienced lawyers to administor an estate, our guidance is practical, thoughtful and tailored to your needs.
Estate Planning
We prepare wills, powers of attorney, representation agreements, alter ego and joint partner trusts, and other estate planning tools tailored to your goals. Our team also supports clients with inter vivos transfers, gifts and real property matters, including deeds, gift letters and joint tenancy arrangements. Where appropriate, we work closely with corporate counsel to align estate plans with reorganizations or family trusts.
Estate Administration
We assist executors and administrators throughout the estate process — from probate applications to distributing assets and resolving questions of legal duty. We also advise beneficiaries on their rights and help trustees meet their obligations with clarity and care.
Estate Litigation
Disputes involving estates can be both complex and emotionally charged. We handle will challenges, variation claims and estate administration disputes with diligence and care — advocating firmly for our clients while remaining respectful of the loss involved. Our team is experienced in navigating probate applications and litigation under the Wills, Estates and Succession Act (WESA).
Wealth Preservation
Working closely with tax advisors, we support family-owned businesses with succession planning and tax-efficient wealth transfers. This includes corporate restructuring and reorganizations designed to protect assets across generations while achieving personal and business goals.
