Estate Planning

BCF’s estate planning specialists design thorough tax and estate plans to protect our clients and their heirs from the legal and strategic issues that arise following a death. Our notaries and tax specialists minimise tax impacts, while ensuring a smooth transfer of the business to the next generation.

To meet our clients’ evolving needs in the area of estate planning, BCF provides a variety of flexible and personalised solutions such as testamentary trusts, protection mandates, estate assessments, inter vivos donations to family members, structures for acquiring and holding secondary homes in Canada, the United States or elsewhere, life insurance products, and estate freezes. Our estate plans ensure that our clients' estates reflect their intentions regardless of their complexity.
