We Handle Probate Applications
The probate begins with filing a complete and accurate application for a Certificate of Appointment of Estate Trustee. Note that all supporting affidavits, estate valuations, original wills, and other court documents must meet Ontario’s legal requirements. Our lawyers prepare and review every filing carefully, reducing the risk of delays, rejected applications, and costly administrative errors.
Expert Guidance for Estate Administration
Managing an estate requires careful coordination from beginning to end. Thus, estate trustees must secure assets, deal with creditors, communicate with beneficiaries, work with financial institutions, and oversee the lawful distribution of the estate. At One80 Law, we provide ongoing legal guidance to help you administer estates, whether the deceased left a valid will or not.
Risk Management for Executors
Serving as an executor comes with significant legal and financial responsibilities. Errors such as distributing assets before debts are settled, overlooking creditors, or failing to keep accurate records can result in personal liability. Our experienced lawyers help you understand your fiduciary duties, make informed decisions, and confidently administer the estate in accordance with Ontario law.
Estate Accounting & Regulatory Compliance
The law requires estate trustees to maintain detailed financial records throughout the administration process, calculate estate administration tax accurately, determine which assets are subject to probate, and submit the required estate information return within Ontario’s 180-day deadline. We assist with estate accounting, tax calculations, reporting obligations, and compliance requirements to help prevent penalties, disputes, and unnecessary expenses.
Legal Support for Complex Probate Matters
Some estates require legal guidance beyond the standard probate process. Disagreements between beneficiaries, multiple wills, family trusts, privately owned businesses, jointly held property, estate litigation, and cross-border assets can all create additional legal challenges. Our lawyers provide practical support to help resolve these matters efficiently while protecting both the estate and the interests of those involved.
Don’t let detailed paperwork or legal jargon overwhelm you. The experienced estate and probate lawyers at One80 Law are ready to offer the legal clarity and support you need to ensure a law-compliant and smooth probate process. Remember, we have extensive expertise in estate law, wills, and more.
