File Court Applications
Applying for a Certificate of Appointment of Estate Trustee is a legal process that requires careful preparation of court forms, sworn affidavits, and supporting documentation. Missing information or filing errors can delay probate and create unnecessary costs. Our lawyers prepare, review, and submit every required document, helping your application meet Ontario court requirements from the outset.
Legal Support for Estate Administration
Administering an estate involves many legal and financial responsibilities beyond distributing the deceased person’s inheritance. Estate trustees must locate assets, notify financial institutions, pay outstanding debts, manage estate property, and ensure beneficiaries receive their proper entitlement. We provide practical legal guidance throughout the administration process, helping you fulfil your responsibilities efficiently while complying with Ontario estate laws.
Professional Guidance for Executors
Acting as an executor carries significant fiduciary obligations. Distributing estate assets too early, overlooking creditors, or failing to keep beneficiaries reasonably informed can expose you to personal financial liability. Our lawyers will explain your legal duties, assist with difficult decisions, and help you administer the estate fairly, transparently, and according to the last personal wishes of the deceased.
Estate Accounting & Tax Compliance
Estate trustees are responsible for maintaining detailed financial records, calculating Estate Administration Tax, identifying assets from private businesses, and filing the estate information return within Ontario’s required 180-day deadline. We help prepare accurate estate accounts, calculate probate-related taxes, satisfy reporting obligations, and reduce the risk of costly administrative errors.
Guidance for Complex Estate Issues
Some estates involve more than probate alone. Business ownership, blended families, jointly owned assets, missing beneficiaries, estate disputes, or out-of-province property can significantly complicate administration. Our real estate lawyers provide practical legal advice to resolve complex estate issues, helping protect the estate while ensuring the entire probate or estate administration process is efficient.
Allow the skilled lawyers at One80 Law to help administer an estate or handle your executor duties in accordance with the law and the deceased person's wishes. The best part? You don't need an in-office meeting. We provide virtual services that cover all legal aspects of probate and estate matters.
