We understand that every estate is unique, and we offer Estate Administration services tailored to your specific situation. In Ontario, the formal process of administering an estate often involves obtaining a Certificate of Appointment of Estate Trustee (commonly known as “Probate”). This is the court process that confirms your legal authority to manage and distribute the deceased’s assets.

While not every estate requires probate, it is typically necessary if the deceased owned real estate, held significant bank accounts, or if financial institutions require legal proof of your authority to act. Whether there is a valid will or the deceased passed away intestate (without a will), we provide the legal advice needed to correctly administer the estate.
