What if I die without a Will?

Lilian Cazacu was born in the Republic of Moldova, located in Eastern Europe. There, he received his Law Degree, Masterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s in Law, and Ph.D. in Law & Criminology. Lilian is a legal professional who worked in this field for about 20 years now.

After he received his law degree, he taught Criminology to undergraduate students, while working on his Masterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s and Doctoral studies at the Moldova State University.

In 2005, Lilian and his family moved to Canada without speaking any

English. Since his 10+ years of legal education were not recognized here in Canada, he went back to school and received a second Masterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s degree in Applied Legal Studies at SFU, in order to become a Notary Public.

In 2014, after 12 years of legal education, Lilian started his own Notary practice.

Now, LC Notary team consists of 8 people and keeps growing every year.

Most people think that they donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t need a Will because they donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t own much. Others think that the gover ment will get it all. So, are these beliefs correct? Yes and No. First, there are many other reasons to prepare your Will besides transferring your estate â&#x20AC;&#x201C; such as a pointing Executors, Guardians of your minor kids, and making sure that your estate goes to the right people, but not to the ones that the government decides.

Secondly, the government doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t â&#x20AC;&#x153;get it allâ&#x20AC;?, but dying â&#x20AC;&#x153;intestateâ&#x20AC;? (without a Will) makes your estate going through Administration process instead of Probate, which is normally costlier and more time consuming.

The new Wills, Estates and Succession Act (WESA) that came into effect 2 years ago has changed the structure of the intestate distribution, which is quite different than the previous structure. However, the most questions that might affect your estate could include the following questions:

FINISH YOUR DEGREE Developing new skills and expanding your marketability as an adult in the workforce is something we all try our best to do. The reality is, our full-time roles and family commitments leave little to no capacity for our academic selfimprovement. You can’t have all three, right?

Turns out you can. Your opportunity to earn a University degree is no longer confined to a four-year window following your secondary education. Trinity Western University (TWU) is giving you the custom tools you need to find a healthy balance between all three. Their Adult Degree Completion program is dissolving all the preconceptions you and everyone else once had about completing a University degree as an adult.

TWU’s Adult Degree Completion program offers a BA in Leadership or a BA in Psychology. It’s customized learning plans mean flexibility, convenience and relevance to your particular needs, helping you get what you need for your career while living your already busy life. The program advisors work with you, taking into account your educational and career background, to help you create a customized learning plan to suit your needs, goals and schedule.

Believe it or not, the program model allows you to finish your degree in 18 months (dependent on incoming transfer credits). Courses run for six weeks at a time, one evening class a week in Langley or Richmond, BC, —or you can take any or all of the courses online. With ongoing start dates throughout the year, you can begin courses anytime. The program is flexible with when you do your courses and how you do them.

We think Yvonne, program alum and the General Manager of YMCA Greater Vancouver, sums it up best, “Think of it as more than just a completion of a degree or your next career move or next opportunity but it really has been an investment in me.”

Education doesn’t become insignificant the older we get.

We don’t have to feel intimidated about entering back into an academic environment after years gone by. What are you waiting for? Come experience the most flexible degree completion program in Canada. Designed for busy adults like yourself, it’s the degree you need the way you want it.
