If you own a corporation (or two), we can help you prepare a secondary Will to help minimize probate taxes, and transfer or dispose of the corporation in parallel with your personal assets. The process of creating a Will for business owners is slightly different, and we have the expertise to walk you through the process. Contact us for details and pricing.
Why Make a Secondary Will for your Corporation
There are several benefits of creating a Secondary Will for your Corporation that is not subject to probate (i.e. non-probate Will), some of which are listed below:
Save on Probate
Taxes
This is the biggest advantage. In Ontario, probate fees are approximately $15 per $1,000 of estate value (after the first $50,000). For a significant business, these fees can quickly add up to tens or even hundreds of thousands of dollars. A corporate will avoids these fees on the value of your private company shares.
Maintain Business Confidentiality
A primary Will typically becomes a public record once probated. A corporate Will, not requiring probate, remains private, protecting sensitive information about your business assets and beneficiaries.
Maintain Business Continuity
The probate process can be time-consuming (several weeks to a year or more). By using a corporate will for your business interests, the transfer of shares can happen much faster, minimizing disruption to the business operations after your death.
Tailored Succession Planning
A Corporate Will allows you to specifically outline your wishes for the succession of your business. This includes appointing an Executor, appointing a successor or determining how the business will be sold, and how the proceeds will be distributed.
