It is difficult to emphasize the importance of having a current Will to ensure your wishes are followed and to avoid the application of the Albert legislation to your personal situation.  With no will, Alberta Law may direct who will administer your estate, and how your estate will be divided. Obviously, the application of Alberta Law may result in increased legal costs and may cause significant turmoil in your family, and may cause a result which is much different than you and you family may want.  

We urge you to give yourself the peace of mind and security in knowing that your estate plan is in good order, and that you have made the effort to preserve and protect your assets and to provide for your loved ones.

We can also assist with all aspects Estate Planning and the preparation of other documents such as Enduring Powers of Attorney and Personal Directives. We can discuss incorporation or family trusts in situations where there may be some tax advantage.  Our experienced team of lawyers and legal assistants can also work with personal representatives, executors, trustees and the families involved.
