Wills and Estates

“When it comes to divide an estate, the politest men quarrel”

By Ralph Waldo Emerson

Once we lose our ability to make decisions or we pass away, we lose control of our assets, we lose control of our medical decisions, and we lose the ability of deciding who can make decision for us. The only opportunity we have to have some control about these things, is by creating clear and concise instructions. Otherwise, this might not only result in things being done that we may not wish to be done with our assets or how we are taken care of, but it might also result in higher probate fees and legal fees and less money for the beneficiaries. 

In some cases, it can also result in strife between family members. 

You can, fortunately, do things to provide your loved ones some guidance and we can assist. 

Gill & Mulholland LLP can assist with the following: 

• Preparing continuing powers of attorney for property

• Preparing non-continuing powers of attorney for property

• Preparing powers of attorney for personal care

• Setting up family and trusts

• Preparation of wills (individual, joint and corporate/dual)

At Gill & Mulholland LLP we not only take the time to prepare these documents, we also carefully review the document with you to make sure you understand what you are signing and to ensure that they reflect your wishes. We use clear and concise language to help avoid confusion down the road. These documents are designed to come into effect when you are no longer able to make the decisions for yourself. It is therefore extremely important that you work with a legal team you trust and that has your best interest in mind.
