Preparing for death or incapacity may not be your first priority, but as estate lawyers, we highly recommend that you address this in a timely manner. We can help. Our friendly staff welcomes all questions and is there to guide you every step of the way. Our approach to estate planning and estate administration is tailored to each client individually, based on his or her circumstances, goal, and plans for distributing their estate after death.

Advantages of an Estate Lawyer by Your Side

Our estate lawyers can guide you and your family towards a better future. Failing to plan your estate with a will may result in unfortunate consequences to your estate and your loved ones. We are forward thinking, as we plan ahead for you and provide the results you want, including tax benefits. We can also assist you in matters of inheritance. Inheritance is not taxed in Canada; instead, the estate pays tax on it. But there are exceptions and other general rules governing this principle of inheritance. Schedule an appointment with one of our estate lawyers at our Calgary office for your detailed estate planning.

MICHELLE R.

My partner and I had a meeting with Charles today. He was very welcoming and so full of knowledge! Not only that but most importantly, honest. He helped us understand our situation and did so without us retaining him and charging us a ton of money! Such a different experience than any other lawyer I had dealt with in the city. He did not make us feel as if we were just a dollar sign and actually seemed to care. That is not common in lawyers. You’re awesome Charles and we would most definitely recommend you to anyone!

I came to Osuji & Smith to review a commercial lease for my new business location. Charles and Alessia thoroughly reviewed my lease with me so that I understood it, and provided me specific notes about the present lease to take back to the landlord. Charles exceeded my expectations by also giving me additional tips on legal contracts on top of sharing some business advice that will be invaluable to the future of my business and my success as a new business owner. I feel the value I received from this office is why I will surely choose them again in the future.
