Experienced Lawyers for Estate and Probate Matters

Losing a loved one is difficult enough without the added responsibility of administering their estate. Whether you have been appointed as an estate trustee under a will or need to manage an estate where no valid will exists, the legal process is complex. It involves court applications, financial calculations, strict deadlines, and important decisions that can feel overwhelming without experienced legal guidance.

At One80 Law, our licensed probate lawyers help individuals and families in the Guelph community navigate every stage of probate and estate administration. We explain your legal duties, prepare the required court documents, help protect you from personal liability, and provide practical advice tailored to your circumstances. Our goal is to make the process as stress-free as possible while ensuring the estate is administered in accordance with Ontario law and the deceased person’s last wishes.

Our skilled lawyers provide legal services via a secure virtual-first model. That means your file will be reviewed and handled directly by a qualified lawyer who will connect with you by phone, email, video conference, and secure document sharing.

We Offer Reliable Estate and Probate Services

Initial Document Review

Each estate in Guelph is unique, and not all estates require probate. Our lawyers begin by reviewing the deceased’s will, death certificate, financial records, property ownership documents, beneficiary list, and other relevant information. This will help us to determine whether an application for a Certificate of Appointment of Estate Trustee (probate) is necessary. Enjoy timely and reliable client service.

File the Court Application

If probate is required, we’ll prepare the necessary court documents and ensure they comply with Ontario’s estate laws. From completing the Certificate of Appointment of Estate Trustee (probate) application to preparing sworn affidavits, estate valuations, and supporting documents, our lawyers are committed to minimizing filing errors during these applications and ensuring you don’t miss deadlines.

Guide You through Estate Administration

Once the court issues the Certificate of Appointment of Estate Trustee, your legal responsibilities will continue. Estate trustees must protect estate assets, notify financial institutions, settle outstanding debts, file required tax returns, and distribute the estate according to the will or Ontario’s succession laws. We will provide ongoing legal guidance throughout every stage of the estate administration process.

Estate Accounting & Tax Obligations

Estate trustees must maintain accurate financial records, calculate estate administration tax, prepare estate accounts, and submit the required estate information return within Ontario’s prescribed deadline. Our lawyers help ensure all reporting obligations are completed accurately while identifying assets that may pass outside the estate where permitted by law, helping reduce unnecessary delays and administrative complications.

Navigate Complex Legal Issues

Some estates involve blended families, privately held businesses, jointly owned property, multiple beneficiaries, disputed wills, or assets located outside Ontario. These situations often complicate the probate process and require additional legal guidance. Our team of experienced probate lawyers will help resolve such estate issues and protect the interests of estate trustees and beneficiaries.

Do you need help with the closing costs of a real estate deal, issues involving the power of attorney, or a disputed will? The qualified and experienced lawyers at One80 Law are ready to help. We're passionate lawyers who bring deep expertise to every case we undertake. It's no surprise we provide real results to our clients in Guelph.
