Description

Appointment of a liquidator
  • It is possible to appoint a liquidator in the case of a succession without a will, or with a will if the testator has omitted to appoint a liquidator.
  • The Civil Code of Québec gives the heirs the right to designate a liquidator to administer the estate.
  • A majority of the heirs may designate the liquidator. This decision must be taken by a majority of the heirs present.
  • However, these rules may vary depending on the wording of the will and the powers you wish to confer on the liquidator.
  • In the absence of a liquidator, the heirs must act collectively to settle the estate, following the directives stipulated by law.
  • Discover a wealth of information about settling or liquidating an estate by visiting our legal FAQ.
The Civil Code of Quebec does not require any formalities for this designation, but some financial institutions, according to their internal policies, require that the affidavit accompanying this document be signed before a notary. It is therefore advisable to check with the institution where the deceased was doing business before completing this designation of liquidator under private signature online.
