Estate planning

Plan ahead and keep your family united

While it may not be a top priority for many people, having an up-to-date will and estate plan ensures that your assets are distributed according to your wishes and without excessive tax, legal challenges and family strife.

A watertight estate plan  provides security and certainty for your family, and peace of mind for you.

At Nelligan Law we offer comprehensive Estate Planning services to our clients. Estate Planning is the process of preparing for the distribution of assets and property after a person’s death.
