If you want to determine whether or not there are dormant accounts in the name of the Deceased, you will need to contact the Bank of Canada so that they can inform you of the legal documentation they require to process your claim.
There are specific requirements in Ontario, set out in legislation called the Succession Law Reform Act (SLRA), that govern how a Will is to be executed in order to make it valid. These requirements are quite rigid and a document that does not comply with them may very well be found to be invalid.

Jaime Gilmore is a professional through and through. He is experienced in litigation, provides sound advice, and considers the cost of any legal proceedings to his clients. Jaime got us great results on our rather complicated and potentially costly estate matter.
We would hire him again without question.
