Our expertise includes

  • No matter the issue—a contested will, a dispute over asset distribution, the removal of an estate trustee or trustee, or allegations of breach of fiduciary duty—we are well-equipped to handle all types of estates and trusts litigation disputes.

  • We can help prepare a comprehensive plan for you and your family, including drafting wills, trusts, and powers of attorney.

  • It is a truly unfortunate experience when we see an elderly person being taken advantage of financially or emotionally. If you are aware of this situation, we can help.

  • Capacity issues range from challenging a will or power of attorney due to lack of capacity at the time of preparation, to helping an attorney for property or personal care navigate their responsibilities with someone whose capacity is unclear. Whatever the challenge, we can help.

  • We provide legal and strategic advice to guide estate trustees, trustees, and executors through the complex process of administering an estate or trust.

  • Our firm represents beneficiaries in disputes related to the distribution of assets, ensuring their rights are protected and that the administration of the estate or trust is done in a fair and transparent manner.

  • When a person passes away without a valid will, we can help you understand what rights you may have and how the deceased person’s estate and property are to be handled.

  • If you believe that you have not been adequately provided for by a deceased person and you qualify as a dependant, please contact us for a consultation.

  • We assist fiduciaries in the preparation and presentation of detailed accounts so that they can be submitted to the court for approval, if need be.

  • In cases where an attorney for property or personal care needs to be changed (or no such appointment occurred), guardianship orders can be obtained to ensure there is someone available to make decisions for an incapable person.

  • We can help you navigate the issues related to upholding the validity of a will or challenging a will if you think it may be invalid.

  • Beneficiary designations are being used more and more in many different circumstances. If you have an issue related to the validity of a beneficiary designation, we can help.

  • Common issues that we see involve the validity of a power of attorney or competing Powers of Attorney (ie. two documents signed by the same person, on different dates, with a question related to their validity). Disputes over the validity of a power of attorney can be complicated. Our team can help.
