Wills and Estates

Effective March 31, 2014, the Wills, Estates and Succession Act (WESA) came into effect modernizing estate law in BC. The act provides greater certainty for individuals who put their last wishes into writing and simplifies the process for those responsible for distributing an estate.

It is important to have a Will

No matter the value of your assets, you have the right to decide who will manage your estate after your death, who will take care of your children and how your assets will be distributed. Without your Will, these very important decisions will be made by the government.

Wills Preparation

Our office can help you to prepare a will where you can outline your wishes for the distribution of assets, guardianship of minor children, and the designation of an Executor who takes care of administering the estate.
