Éducaloi & Centre Paul-André Crépeau for Private and Comparative Law

The content of these video capsules, produced by the Paul-André Crépeau Centre for Private and Comparative Law, were made possible by a collaboration with Éducaloi and Me Étienne Cossette-Lefebvre (Pierre Elliott Trudeau Foundation grant recipient). 

On the occasion of our fall 2023 publication of the volume Successions of the Private Law Dictionary and Bilingual Lexicons series, the Paul-André Crépeau Centre for Private and Comparative Law – in partnership with Éducaloi and Me Étienne Cossette-Lefebvre (Canada Graduate Scholar in Honour of Nelson Mandela and Pierre Elliott Trudeau Foundation grantee) – has created a series of videos with the goal of improving access to basic knowledge about succession (estate) law in Quebec.  

In this series of videos, Me Étienne Cossette-Lefebvre responds to the question “Which will to choose?...” – explaining not only the advantages and disadvantages of the various types of wills (notarized, holograph, in the presence of witnesses), but also what to do when there is no will.  

“Which will to choose? Without a will”

The Crépeau Centre thanks the Chambre des notaires du Québec and the Department of Justice Canada for their financial support.
