In Ontario, a properly executed Will requires that: • The Will must be in writing; • The Will must be signed at the end by the testator in front of two witnesses while all 3 people are in the room at the same time; and • The witnesses subscribe the will in the presence of the testator. If the Will is duly executed (meets the 3 criteria listed above), it will generally be presumed that the testator knew and approved of the contents and had the necessary testamentary capacity. Whether wanting to challenge a Will or defending a Will challenge, or wanting to have a Will drafted that should withstand a challenge, please contact us.
