WILLS & ESTATES.
-
A will addresses the distribution of your assets & the guardianship of your children when you pass away.
You also need Power of Attorney & Enduring Guardian documents, which appoint someone to handle your finance & health decisions while you are alive, but incapacitated.
It is important to make your wishes clear & together.
These three documents help to safeguard you & your family now - and into the future.
-
After a loved one dies, a Grant of Probate is often needed to validate a will.
This document provides the executor of the estate permission to collect assets, pay debts & distribute assets to beneficiaries, as per the loved one's will.
At Sally Callander Law, we have created a streamlined process to help clients avoid any delays in executing a Probate document.
-
A Letter of Administration is needed when a loved one dies without a will.
This document designates an administrator(s) to manage & distribute a deceased loved one’s assets & pay any debts.
Sometimes, a Letter of Administration is needed, even when there is a will.
