Wills and Estate Law

A Will and Powers of Attorney are not simply papers. They are decisions about people you trust, responsibilities you assign, and comfort you provide to your family. MBLAW Professional Corporation helps you put these decisions into clear legal form that protects your wishes now and later.

Wills And Estates Law

Power of Attorney

A Power of Attorney is a legally binding document in Ontario that appoints a trusted individual to act on your behalf if you become unable to manage your own affairs. There are two types of Powers of Attorney: for Property, which authorizes financial decisions, and for Personal Care, which addresses health and personal well-being. Having valid Powers of Attorney ensures that your wishes are respected and that important matters are handled by a person you choose. Our team at MBLAW carefully prepares these documents to reflect your preferences and protect your future interests, while helping you understand your rights and responsibilities throughout the process.

Wills

A Will is the foundation of estate planning in Ontario. It outlines how your assets will be distributed after your passing and names a person responsible for handling your estate. Without a Will, the Ontario Succession Law Reform Act determines how your property is divided, which may not reflect your wishes. Preparing a Will is especially important if you own real estate, have children, or provide for dependents. At MBLAW, we assist clients in drafting clear and legally valid Wills that honor personal priorities, secure beneficiaries, and minimize future disputes. Your Will is a lasting legal expression of your intentions and values.
