Today we are talking about Wills and Estates.

If a deceased person owed support to a spouse or child under the Family Law Act, they may also be entitled to dependant's relief from the deceased's estate under the Succession Law Reform Act.

If the deceased's will doesn't provide for these obligations, the dependant can apply in court to receive the support they are owed.

LawFact of the Day: Wills and Estates

Here is your daily LawFact from Wise Law for Thursday June 8, 2017.

Today we are talking about Wills and Estates.

Where a person dies without a will, an intestacy arises. Ontario’s Succession Law Reform Act establishes rules for the distribution of an intestate deceased person’s property. An intestate person’s spouse inherits the first $200,000 of an Estate.

Estate property over $200,000 is divided between the deceased’s spouse and children, in proportions that depend on the number of surviving children. Where there are no surviving spouse or children, parents inherit. If there are no surviving parents, siblings will inherit.
