Ontario Wills and Estates #LawFact of the Day: Life Insurance and Your Estate #law #legal #EstatePlanning

Life insurance policies that designate a beneficiary become that beneficiary's property on the day the insured dies. 

They don't become part of the insured’s Estate and they are not subjected to estate tax.

Speak to your insurer to designate or update your beneficiary under your policy. It's a critical step in your estate planning.

Wise Law's Family #LawFact of the Day: Mediation of Parenting Disputes in Ontario #law #legal #separation #FamilyLaw

Many parental disputes in Ontario Family Law matters are now resolved through Mediation, rather than court action.

Mediators work with parents to create parenting plans and residency schedules that are tailor-made to provide for children’s needs and for joint parenting. 

Both parties must  obtain independent legal advice to finalize any agreement reached in Mediation.

Wise Law's Employment #LawFact of the Day: Accommodating Pregnancy Leave in the Workplace #law #legal #wrongfuldismissal #termination

Can an employer fire an employee whose pregnancy is causing medical complications that affect her ability to perform her usual workplace duties?

Employers have a duty to accommodate in those circumstances unless it would cause undue hardship.

This accommodation may include changing job duties temporarily or providing time off work.

It is unlawful and discriminatory if an employer improperly fired, demotes, or lays off an employee due to a pregnancy.
