Common questions
Common questions
What happens if I die without a will in BC?
BC law determines who inherits and in what shares. Someone must be appointed to administer the estate.
Does a will cover me if I lose capacity?
No. A will takes effect after death. An enduring power of attorney covers finances and property; a representation agreement can address health and personal care. The documents you need depend on your circumstances.
When should I review my will?
Review it after a separation, new relationship, birth, death or major change in assets. Check beneficiary designations too: they may operate separately from your will.
