Firm Profile:
Charles B. Wagner and Associates specialize in Estate Litigation, Inheritance Disputes, Will Litigation and Elder Law Issues.

Those few law firms in Toronto that specialize in estate litigation have an edge because this is a niche field with its own rules, conventions and procedures.

Estate litigators require a different skill set that comes from a constant exposure to the nuances and subtleties of this specialized field of law.

Charles B. Wagner & Associates developed this expertise by focusing on this specialized area. To excel, these Toronto Will Lawyers combine an assertive intensity with analytical ability and negotiating prowess flowing from an understanding of the family dynamics intrinsic to estate litigation.

This law firm represents International & Canadian clients. Typical cases include:

1. Will Challenges;

2. Support Claims;

3. Quantum Meruit Claims;

4. Executor Removal & Compelling the passing of accounts;

5. Issues relating to Powers of Attorney and Statutory Guardianship

6. Solicitor's negligence.

We believe that speedier successful resolution of files comes as a result of accelerating litigation, not gratuitous delay.

For those who need a lawyer to assertively champion and uncompromisingly represent their interests, Charles B. Wagner and associates are lawyers whose experience speaks to those needs.
