The experienced real estate lawyers at Drake Law review each file individually, giving each case the time and care needed to ensure that your transaction goes smoothly from start to finish.

With Remote Closings, you can manage all your real estate transactions from anywhere in Southwestern Ontario, all from the comfort of your own home or office.

  • Property Transactions

    Buying or selling a home? We walk you through the process, reviewing the property’s history and providing valuable information about past issues, maintenance costs, and more. We also ensure that all legal documentation is filed correctly, so you can enjoy your new home sooner.

  • Wills

    A will is a fundamental legal document that ensures your wishes are respected and your assets are distributed as intended upon your passing. Without a will, provincial laws will dictate how your estate is divided, which may not align with your wishes. For individuals and families, a will safeguards the financial well-being of loved ones, especially when children or dependents are involved.

  • Powers of Attorney

    Powers of Attorney are essential tools for protecting your interests during your lifetime. They allow you to appoint trusted individuals to manage your financial affairs or make health care decisions on your behalf if you become incapacitated. Formalizing these arrangements ensures that your wishes are respected and that decisions are made efficiently and in your best interest, reducing stress for your family during challenging times.

  • Estate Administration

    Effective estate administration is key to ensuring a smooth and orderly process for settling an estate. By planning ahead and appointing an executor in your will, you help simplify the often complex legal and financial responsibilities involved. This proactive approach minimizes delays, reduces costs, and prevents disputes, providing peace of mind for your family during an emotional time.
