If you own shares in a private corporation, a dual will strategy can significantly reduce the probate fees owed by your estate. At Kormans LLP, we prepare dual wills that separate your business assets from your personal estate, helping you preserve value and avoid unnecessary delays or expenses.
We work with business owners, professionals, and corporate shareholders to ensure their legal documents are properly structured and compliant with Ontario law—whether you're incorporating a new company, restructuring ownership, or updating your estate documents after a major transaction.
Our approach is practical, efficient, and tailored to the unique needs of business owners and their families.
