Our Services In Probate
Hiring an experienced probate lawyer can make all the difference in estate planning. Our Halifax probate lawyers, serving all Nova Scotia, will handle all responsibilities with respect to managing your estate. It is important to get the advice and support of a probate lawyer to avoid additional legal fees and delays later.
Without a will, a court application must be made to appoint an administrator who will distribute your assets and pay your debts. This process can cost you an additional $2,500 in legal fees. In Nova Scotia, after death, a Will sometimes needs to be submitted for probate. Financial institutions like banks or investment companies typically require legal recognition from the probate registry before they can release funds to the executor/personal representative named in the Will. Let our probate lawyers help guide you through the process.
