Estate planning does not end when the testator passes away. This is especially true for owners of private companies, including holding companies with rental properties and incorporated professionals. Decisions made after a shareholder’s death allow executors and beneficiaries to shape the way an estate is treated for tax purposes and how property is distributed. Most importantly, post-mortem planning can mitigate double and triple taxation of private company shares on death. Failure to make the right post-mortem decisions in these situations can result in an estate paying more tax than is necessary, leaving less for the beneficiaries and possibly exposing the executor to personal liability. This program...Read More

Their services can be invaluable in achieving an early resolution or strengthening the case for trial in employment investigations, criminal cases, family law matters, insurance claims, and commercial disputes. Retaining this assistance, however, means that lawyers assume important ethical and legal responsibilities for how the investigation is handled...Read More
