Paul Adam on Wills and Estates: Making a Last Will
If you're making the Last Will there are 4 things that you should think about.
1. Who do I want to leave my property to after I pass away?
2. Who's the person that I want to appoint to take care of all of my property and affairs after I die?
3. You need to think about any responsibilities you have to your loved ones to care for them after you die. Think children, think elderly parents.
4. Once you put your mind to all of that, you'll get in contact with the lawyer and the lawyer will help you write your last will.

Paul Adam on Wills and Estates: Is a foreign Will valid in Ontario?
This can
depend on the Will itself. Some factors to consider are:
- Does the Will intend to apply
to property in Ontario?
- Can the words of the Will be
interpreted conclusively?
- Does the Will deal with the
property in a way that is legal in Ontario?
If the
Court is satisfied with the answers to all of these questions, and an executor
has already been appointed outside Ontario, it may grant that executor the
right to administer the deceased’s property in Ontario, too.
