Dividing assets among beneficiaries, taking care of debts or outstanding business, and winding up the estate are just some duties of estate trustees that require careful attention.
The estate lawyers of Hallmark Attorneys LLP are dedicated to helping estate trustees fulfill the requirements of their role. Based in Richmond Hill, Ontario, we can also administer the will on behalf of the trustee, and assist in situations where there is no valid will.
