Faced with an aging population and an increase in the net worth of households, estate-related issues are a greater concern for your customers. Our experienced lawyers and notaries can provide them with legal information and first-level, personalized support to help them manage an estate, both in terms of planning and settlement.

Estate planning

“If I die without a will, who will inherit?”

“If I want to amend my notarized will, is it still valid if I make the corrections myself by hand on my copy and sign it?”

“What is the difference between a designated beneficiary and a mention to my legal heirs on an insurance policy?”

“Can I name several estate executors in my will?”

“If I am separated from my children’s father, can I name someone in my will who will have custody of my children?”

Estate settlement

“My mother just died and I am the designated estate executor. What do I need to do exactly?”

“If my father dies and has unpaid debts, is it true that I am personally liable for his estate’s debts?”

“Does the executor have to give me a copy of my mother’s will?”

“My mother has died. She had no money or property, and left a hand-written will. Do I have to have her will recognized by the Court?”

“Is it true that you have to go through a notary to renounce an estate?”
