Experienced estate planning and estate litigation lawyers

We’re not just estate planners. We’re your advocates too.

The professionals at Vest Estate Lawyers are experienced in protecting the rights of families in Alberta both in and out of the courtroom.

We can help you avoid disputes – and solve them.

Firstly, our experience in estate planning means we understand the needs of families in Alberta, no matter how complex.

We can help you plan, creating the necessary documentation to legally protect you and your family: from powers of attorney and personal directives that nominate individuals to make key decisions for you to making provisions for aged care and writing wills.

You are never too young to start with estate planning – none of us know what’s around the corner.

Many families are surprised to find themselves embroiled in disputes after a loved one passes away. Careful estate planning helps avoid this but, if not, that’s where our estate litigation experience comes in.

When alternative dispute methods like negotiation and mediation do not solve outstanding issues, we are experienced civil litigators ready to fight for your rights and best interests in the courtroom.

Helping you achieve your estate goals…

The team at Vest Estate Lawyers is good at listening, as well as planning and litigating.

We understand that estate matters can become emotional and the relationships involved are dear and potentially fragile.

Families must plan and make decisions around significant life events such as marriages, divorces, births, deaths and so on – all highly charged emotional issues.

So, the first step when we evaluate a case is to listen.

Whether you are looking to preserving your wealth for later in life, ensure that as much of it as possible gets passed on to the intended beneficiaries, administer and probate a will, or contest a will, we will listen carefully to your situation.

We will then advise you of your options, based on our experience in estate planning, disputes, and litigation.

Our team will help you work through estate litigation, manage disputes, or create an executable estate plan to ensure all you intend for the future. Get started today with a confidential one-on-one consultation.
