Estate Lawyers Toronto, Barrie & the GTA

A will is an important document which leaves instructions for how your personal possessions and land will be distributed after you die. Having a will in place is said to be one of the most important things you can do for yourself and your loved ones; spouse, offspring, parents, siblings, and other dependants. The key is to ensure your assets are passed on to the beneficiaries of your choosing upon your passing. The best way to do this is to hire an experienced will lawyer in Toronto who will carefully draft a will to meet your specifications.

At Rogerson Law Group, you will work with an experienced Toronto will lawyer who will guide you through the process of making informed decisions about how and to whom you will transfer your movable and immovable assets. While no one likes to think about their own death, having a will is an essential part of ensuring your loved ones are taken care of. You can expect dedicated and prompt service from our estate and wills lawyers.

• Drafting a new will
• Reviewing and updating an existing will

Probate Lawyers and Estate Administration in Toronto, Barrie & the GTA

It is not always easy to deal with the estate of a loved one who has recently passed. Despite While, at times, it can be an emotionally overwhelming process, it is essential that the estate be dealt with in a timely manner. To ease your burden and ensure the process is handled correctly, it is advisable to hire a probate and estate administration lawyer. At Rogerson Law Group, our lawyers bring skills and expertise to ensure your estate administration will be handled efficiently and in accordance with probate laws. We ensure the assets of the deceased are collated and then distributed based on the terms of their will. If the deceased has died intestate (without leaving a will), we can help you ensure the wealth is distributed in accordance with the statutory rules of intestacy. We will also deal with creditors, helping to discharge the deceased person’s debts and relieving you of the stress that often comes with these dealings.

Our probate and estate administration lawyers are highly skilled when it comes to dealing with cross-border estate litigation or multi-jurisdictional cases.
