For businesses, we assist with the incorporation process, preparing necessary documents such as Articles of Incorporation and Minute Books. Additionally, we support clients through various real estate transactions, including buying, building, selling, and refinancing properties within Manitoba.
Wills, Powers of Attorney, and Health Care Directives
It is recommended that a Will be prepared to appoint an executor and direct the distribution of your estate among your beneficiaries. Additionally, in the event of physical or mental incapacity, it is advised that a Power of Attorney and Health Care Directive be prepared. The Power of Attorney appoints a trusted individual to manage your financial affairs during your lifetime, while the Health Care Directive designates a proxy to make medical decisions in the event that you are unable to speak for yourself.

When a loved one has passed away, we are here to assist you in completing the estate settlement process. After assessing your unique circumstances, we will determine the appropriate level of legal aid required.
