Wills, Succession and Inheritance Planning
Why Do You Need a Will in Richmond Hill?
A Will distributes your assets as you wish and protects your loved ones after your death. It allows you to control who inherits your property, appoint guardians for minor children, and streamline estate management, preventing disputes and legal issues.
De Krupe Law wills and estate lawyer in Richmond Hill offers estate planning beyond just a will. We provide:
- Succession Planning to minimize taxes and legal complications for asset transfer;
- Inheritance Planning to make sure heirs receive their inheritance without delays;
- Trusts and Estates to protect assets and secure your family’s financial future.
Without a will, your assets may not go to your intended beneficiaries, and this is definitely what you want for your family. De Krupe Law wills and estate lawyer Richmond Hill helps create a sound will and estate plan to safeguard your family’s future.
Who Are The Main Parties In A Last Will And Testament?
Succession Law Reform Act and Bill 245 state that legally, you don’t need a will and estate lawyer to draft a will. Nevertheless, understanding each party’party’smakes it easier for you to understand how will law works and how to properly fulfill your wishes.
- Your legal title is Testator. It is the individual who creates the will. The testator decides how their estate will be distributed upon their death, specifying who will inherit their property and how their wishes should be carried out;
- An Executor (or a personal representative) is the one administering the will. They manage the esttestator’sment process, ensuring that the testator’s instructions are followed and that assets are distributed accordingly;
- A Beneficiary is someone who receives something from the estate. Beneficiaries can include family members, friends, or charitable organizations. The testator can name multiple beneficiaries and specify how the assets will be divided among them;
- Witnesses observe the will’s signing. Thetestator’she testator’s identity and confirm that the will was signed willingly and without coercion. They are your guarantee of the will’s legal validity. Read more in our blog post.

I would like to thank the Team of De Krupe Law for handling my separation agreement, mortgage refinancing and land transfer. Stanislav, Eva and Sinthuja were fast, professional and financially affordable . They took the time to explain to me step by step about all procedures. They responded to every email and questions that I had unprecedently fast. All procedures went smoothly and on point with all of the documents that had to signed. Stanislav, Eva and Sinthuja made themselves accessible and told me if I have any related issues they would be happy to help. Thank you once again on doing a great job. I would highly recommend De Krupe Law.

Amazing client service. Stan, Eva and Julietta (and the rest of their team) work as one synchronized customer friendly unit and everyone helps to make the home closing process very smooth and efficient. Definitely the best home closing experience I’ve had - and I’ve bought and sold many times before. They’re so good, that I’m bringing my mom as a new customer! If you trust them to take care of your parents - well that speaks volumes for how good they are! 🙂
