Wills lawyer Surrey: what an estate plan covers
An estate plan is three documents, and each does a different job.
A Will says who receives your assets, who manages your estate as executor and, if you have minor children, who becomes their guardian. Without a Will, BC law decides who inherits (see the Wills, Estates and Succession Act), and the result may not match what you want.
A Power of Attorney names someone to manage your finances and legal affairs if you cannot. “Enduring” means it stays valid if you lose mental capacity.
A Representation Agreement names someone to make health care and personal care decisions for you if you cannot. It covers different ground from a Power of Attorney, so most people need both. The rules are in the Representation Agreement Act.

Prices marked all-in include our legal fee, GST and PST and the items listed with the price. Costs listed as paid separately are charged at actual cost, and prices marked + tax have tax added. Fixed fees apply to standard matters; complex or non-standard files may be quoted separately after an initial consultation. Prices may change if government or third-party charges change or the scope of the work changes.
How our fee works
Prices are plus tax. The single documents are minimum charges for one appointment. For a couple, both of you attend the appointment in person.
Choosing the Essential package costs less than buying the Will, the Power of Attorney and the Representation Agreement separately ($900 against $1,100 for one person, $1,300 against $1,650 for a couple). The Enhanced package is $1,200 for one person and $2,000 for a couple.
We ask for a $500 retainer by e-transfer to open your file, and we send you the details when you book.
Estates that involve spousal trusts, Henson trusts, a business, succession planning or an estate freeze are quoted separately, after a paid consultation.
Which one fits you?
A Will on its own fits you if your Power of Attorney and Representation Agreement are already in place and you need a Will, or an updated one.
The Essential package fits a first Will and a straightforward estate. You get the Will, the Power of Attorney and the Representation Agreement in one appointment.
The Enhanced package fits property owners, parents of minor children, blended families and business owners. It includes everything in Essential, plus staged distributions with the age you choose (19, 21, 25 or 30); gifts of real estate or named assets to named people; protective trust provisions for a beneficiary who may need them; a clause covering simultaneous deaths; authority for your executor over digital assets; the option of joint attorneys; and a Nomination of Committee.
Not sure? Tell us about your family and your assets when you contact us and we tell you which fits. If you are an executor dealing with an estate, see our probate services in Surrey.
Planning for business owners and larger estates
If you own a business, hold real estate or have a more complex family situation, a standard Will may not be enough. We prepare:
- Spousal trusts, which hold assets for a surviving spouse and keep the rest for your children.
- Henson trusts, which hold assets for a beneficiary with a disability.
- Estate freezes and succession plans for a business.
- Declarations and agreements about jointly owned assets.
Each of these is quoted separately after a paid consultation. See our family trusts page, and for a company, our business incorporation page.

Common Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a Will cost in BC?
Our fee for a Will is $400 for one person or $600 for a couple, plus tax. If you also need a Power of Attorney and a Representation Agreement, the Essential package covers all three from $900 for one person or $1,300 for a couple, plus tax. Estates that involve trusts or a business are quoted separately.
Do I need a Power of Attorney and a Representation Agreement as well as a Will?
A Will only takes effect after you die. A Power of Attorney covers your finances and a Representation Agreement covers your health care and personal care decisions if you cannot make them yourself. Most people need all three, which is why the Essential package includes them.
What is the difference between Essential and Enhanced?
Both include a Will, a Power of Attorney and a Representation Agreement. Enhanced adds detail to the Will and the Power of Attorney: staged distributions at the age you choose, gifts of real estate or named assets, protective trust provisions, a clause for simultaneous deaths, digital assets and the option of joint attorneys. It suits property owners, parents of minor children, blended families and business owners.
Can I sign my Will online?
No. Wills are prepared and signed in person at our South Surrey office. For a couple, both people attend. You bring two pieces of government-issued ID, at least one with a photo.
Do both of us need to attend if we are a couple?
Yes. Both people sign in person at the appointment.
What happens if I die without a Will in BC?
BC law decides who inherits your assets, and it may not match what you want. A court appointment may be needed before anyone can deal with your estate. A Will lets you choose who inherits, who acts as executor and who looks after minor children. Our blog explains how it works: dying without a Will in BC.
What if my situation is complicated?
If you have a business, a blended family, a beneficiary with a disability or you want trusts in your plan, tell us when you contact us. These matters are quoted separately, after a paid consultation. If your situation is more complicated, contact our office.
How do I get started?
Use the contact form and tell us whether you want a Will or a package, and whether it is for one person or a couple. We send an intake questionnaire, then book your appointment once we have your retainer. Our estate planning checklist lists what to think about first.
