Wills and Estates Law
The drafting of wills and powers of attorney, and the creation of personal estate plans, has become increasingly complex over the several decades. As a result, proper succession planning and estate administration requires a comprehensive and careful touch.
Shibley Righton LLP has a team of sophisticated and experienced Wills and Estates Lawyers who can provide in-depth advice and services.
Our lawyers can assist and advise in several areas within this field, including:
Wills, trusts, and powers of attorney drafting, at all levels of complexity;
Incapacity and succession planning;
Estate administration; and,
Acting as estate trustee.
Our wills and estates clients are extremely broad in nature. We act for individual clients, business owners and their families, trust companies, charities, and other not-for-profit organizations. We provide advice and strategy to meet the specific needs and requirements of each of our clients.
A significant portion of our wills and estates practice is also representing major national charities in matters relating to wills and estates. (We also represent these charities in a broader capacity, through our Business Law group.)
Whether acting for an individual, or one of Canada's largest charities, we have the expertise to meet our clients’ varying needs quickly, efficiently, and thoroughly.
