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

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: Common Law Separation in Ontario

The property rights of Common Law spouses upon separation are not governed by any Ontario statute.

Common Law spouses may still advance family property claims, especially where property has been acquired in a “joint family venture”

A spouse may also have property rights if they have contributed to the acquisition, maintenance, or improvement of property owned by their common law spouse

Wise Law's Family #LawFact of the Day: How do Child Support Payments Work in Ontario?

The amount of support payable by separated parents in Ontario is strictly governed by the Child Support Guidelines.

The Guidelines tables establish basic child support obligations and are based solely on the payor’s income, number of children, and Province of residence.

Additional amounts may also be payable to cover special and extraordinary expenses incurred for a child’s daycare, medical care, education and extra-curricular activities.

These additional expenses are shared by the parents in proportion to their respective incomes.
