We prepare wills and powers of attorney for Mississauga individuals and families, and guide executors through probate. Many Mississauga families have family or property in India, so we also advise on how a Canadian will works across borders.
Our office is at 6750 Davand Drive in Mississauga, and we offer services in English, Hindi and Punjabi.
Estate planning for Mississauga families
- A will that names an executor, guardians for young children and your beneficiaries
- A power of attorney for property and one for personal care
- Planning for a family home, a rental property or a small business
- Planning for property held in India or another country
Property in India
A Canadian will does not automatically govern property in India. Indian courts can recognise a Canadian probate through a specific process, which takes planning. Our article on whether a Canadian will is valid in India explains the process and the documents involved.
Probate for people who lived in Mississauga
If the person who died lived in Mississauga, the application goes to the Superior Court of Justice for Peel Region, in Brampton.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need a separate will for property in India?
Not always. A Canadian will can cover it, but the recognition process in India needs planning. Get advice from a lawyer experienced in both systems before you decide.
Where is probate filed if I live in Mississauga?
At the Superior Court of Justice for Peel Region, in Brampton.
