 Wills,
Powers of Attorneys and Estates
Jurmain Law Office has over 27 years of experience in
drafting wills and powers of attorneys and administering estates.
Wills
A professionally prepared will is your insurance that your
wishes will be carried out after your death. Failure to prepare a will or a poorly drafted
will may result in your intentions being partially or entirely negated.
Failure to prepare your own will results in the government
determining how your assets will be distributed, which may not be according to your
wishes.
There is too much at stake not to have a lawyer draft your
will. No doubt you and your spouse have worked hard for your estate. Ensure that it is
distributed wisely.
Jurmain Law Office will provide personal consultation to
suit your schedule. After a thorough review with you of your personal circumstances, we
will prepare a draft will for you to examine and approve. Only when you are completely
satisfied and thoroughly understand the document will it be signed. You may decide to keep
the original will us (at no charge) or you may wish to keep it yourself in a safe
location.
Powers of Attorney
A General Power of Attorney is a powerful tool to enable
your business and personal affairs to be conducted with no interruption if you are
incapacitated, either mentally or physically. It also can be used in the event that you
are out of the country for a period of time.
Powers of Attorney can be customized to suit your
particular requirements. They can be effective immediately on signing or upon a future
event. We will review with you all aspects of your Power of Attorney, and ensure you have
a thorough understanding and appreciation of this important legal document.
The Province of Ontario has for the past several years
permitted the preparation of Attorneys for Personal Care. This document is sometimes
referred to as a "Living Will". It is not actually a Will at all. It is a
document which expresses, among other things, your wishes in the event of your
incapacitation, where there is no hope of recovery. It is a statement of your intentions
to your loved ones as to your wishes in these circumstances. It will help them in making
difficult decisions in consultation with your doctor.
Estates
Jurmain Law Office has administered estates in a timely and
cost-effective manner for almost three decades.
We will sit down with you and thoroughly review the estate
and advise you as to what steps are necessary to distribute the assets of the deceased. We
will explain the probate process and inform you whether it is required or not. You can
feel comfortable calling on us any time, and home appointments can be arranged where
needed.
The loss of a family member is a difficult time for you,
and our goal is to make the legal aspects of this time as free from stress as possible.
