Services

Probate Administration

We specialize in managing probate administration and resolving disputes related to estate settlement. Recognizing that probate cases require careful attention to detail, we review trust documents and estate plans to ensure that the distribution of assets adheres to both legal standards and the decedent’s true intentions. Our goal is to streamline this often intricate process while safeguarding your interests.

Trust Disputes

Trust disputes can be particularly challenging, involving sensitive matters of beneficiary rights and trust administration. We work diligently to resolve these conflicts by reviewing all relevant trust documents and applying current legal standards. Our expertise in this area helps ensure that trust management reflects the intentions behind its creation and that your interests are fully protected.

Will Contests

When disputes arise over the validity of a will, we step in to ensure that assets are distributed in accordance with the true wishes of the deceased. In Ontario, where will contests can be both emotionally and legally complex, our team provides compassionate guidance and vigorous representation. We begin by examining the will and all related documentation, building a case that aims for a fair and just resolution.
