Estates Law
An Estate Executor and Trustee is the person or corporation appointed as being responsible for ensuring the proper administration and distribution of a deceased’s estate. The duties of an Estate Executor and Trustee can be onerous and overwhelming especially while one is still grieving. If you have been appointed as an Estate Executor and Trustee, we can advise, assist and guide you through the administration process.
At Housen Law, our estate administration services include, but are not limited to:
1. Applying for a Certificate of Appointment of Estate Trustee (with or without a Will);
2. Assisting with the converting of assets and the distributing to beneficiaries;
3. Passing of accounts;
4. Representing you in claims against the estate; and
5. Tax issues.

My husband and I recently had our Wills prepared by Housen Law. We were very impressed with the professional manner we saw, and we were given excellent guidance that helped us through this process. The rate charged for doing the Wills was a very good rate compared to other law firms. We were also amazed at how fast the Will was prepared. The previous Wills that we had done by a different law firm did not compare to the Wills prepared by Housen Law. Both my husband and I would highly recommend Housen Law. We all need the peace of mind, that our wishes are carried out after we go, and I am confident that Housen Law will do that. – BJO
