Brian Radnoff was recently quoted by Advocate Daily in an article titled, “Divisional Court confirms common estate planning tool: Radnoff.”
The article discusses a recent Ontario Divisional Court ruling on multiple wills, overturning a previous judgment by Ontario Superior Court Justice Sean Dunphy, which would have invalidated the majority of primary wills across the province. Had Justice Dunphy’s ruling stood, “it would have necessitated lawyers redrafting almost every primary will for any client who had multiple wills,” said Brian.
“This is probably the most important Ontario estate planning decision to come out in the last several years,” he told the publication. “It’s also comforting for estate practitioners to know that it reaffirms what everyone thought was correct.”
