- Your chosen beneficiaries inherit your assets.
- You appoint a trusted executor to manage your estate.

Our will lawyers in London, Ontario make the process simple, clear, and stress-free.

Tip: Investing in a properly drafted will now can save your family thousands later.
3. What Is Probate, and Do I Need a Lawyer for It?

- Filing probate applications in court
- Assisting executors with their duties
- Distributing assets fairly and legally

4. What Happens If Someone Dies Without a Will in Ontario?

- Ensure property is distributed according to your wishes
Our estate lawyers help families avoid these risks with proactive planning.

A will takes effect after death and directs how assets should be distributed.

Our trust and estate lawyers will advise whether a trust is right for you.
