At One80 Law, we help executors apply for a grant of probate, calculate probate fees, and ensure estate property distribution according to the deceased’s will.
The probate process can be complex. That’s why our skilled probate lawyers will provide the legal support you need to ensure the probate confirms the authenticity of the deceased’s will, the executor’s authority, and authenticates the authority of key third parties.

Bringing Probate and Estate Administration Solutions to You
Probate Application
The probate process in British Columbia begins with issuing a formal notice to the individuals involved at least 21 days before applying. Once notice is complete, the application is prepared and filed with the court. We’ll guide you through each step, ensuring all legal documents (including a death certificate) are accurate, timelines are met, and the entire legal process moves forward without unnecessary delays.
Support for Executors
Each stage of probate comes with specific legal requirements. Executors must adhere to formal court processes and meet strict deadlines set by the Supreme Court of British Columbia. Our experienced estate lawyers will assist with transferring real estate, bank accounts, and other assets to the beneficiaries. We will also help you handle all financial obligations and business interests involving the deceased person's assets.
Estate Administration Support
If a person dies without a valid will, the court can appoint an estate administrator to gather assets, settle debts, and facilitate distribution in accordance with intestate estate laws. Whether you are dealing with joint bank accounts, joint tenancy, or complex assets, One80 Law will help you discharge your duties as a personal representative of the deceased person correctly.
Financial Accounting Support
Executors and estate administrators must document the value of all assets at the date of death, record liabilities, track income received, and account for expenses paid. We will provide the legal support you need to account for the deceased's assets, pay outstanding debts, fulfill estate tax obligations, and more. Remember, proper administration of the deceased's estate can minimize stress for the family.
