Planning for the future and ensuring the proper distribution of your assets is a critical step in securing your legacy. At Pegasus Law, we specialize in providing comprehensive and reliable wills and estate law services in Ontario to help you navigate this important aspect of your life.

To ensure proper estate planning, it is advisable to create a will once you have reached the age of majority and own substantial assets. However, certain exceptions allow for the creation of a will at a younger age, such as being on active duty with the armed forces or getting married before reaching the age of majority. This applies to both pre-death documents, including powers of attorney.

It is important to note that in the absence of a will, the Succession Act comes into effect, determining the distribution of your assets and property. Without clear instructions in a will, your estate may be subject to the government’s disposition if you have no heirs.

By proactively creating a will, you have the opportunity to designate beneficiaries and ensure that your assets are distributed according to your wishes. This allows you to have control over the distribution of your estate, providing financial security and peace of mind for your loved ones.
