🚨 WAIT… 3 WEEKS?! 😳

Yes, you read that right!

Thinking of starting a business in British Columbia? Well, before you get too excited about your new business name, you might want to check the current processing times at BC Registries!

⏳ Name approval delays can mean waiting weeks before you can move forward with incorporation under your chosen name.

And if you’re a business owner trying to get things moving, you know that 3 weeks can feel like 3 months! 😅

💡 A little lawyer tip:

If you’re planning to incorporate, submit your name request EARLY!

And here’s something many entrepreneurs don’t realize: You may be able to incorporate immediately using a numbered company and deal with the business name later.

At Rahman Patel Law, we help entrepreneurs navigate the legal side of starting and growing their businesses.

Because starting a business is exciting enough without unexpected paperwork delays!

“What Happens If You Die Without a Will?”
You’ve worked hard to build a life. But what happens to everything you’ve built — your home, your savings, your children — if you die without a Will?

It’s a scenario no one likes to think about… but one we see far too often.

If you die without a Will in BC or Ontario, here’s what happens:
🔸 The government decides who inherits your estate
🔸 Your minor children may receive assets with no financial guidance
🔸 There’s no automatic guardian — even if you’re a parent
🔸 Family disputes, delays, and unexpected legal costs often follow

This is called intestacy, and it means your wishes may never be known — or followed.

A properly drafted Will ensures:
✔️ Your loved ones are cared for
✔️ Your assets go where you choose
✔️ You appoint the right people to manage your affairs
✔️ You spare your family the stress of uncertainty

At Rahman Patel Law, we make the Will planning process simple, personal, and fully tailored to your values — whether you're in British Columbia or Ontario.

🖊️ It’s not just a legal document. It’s your final voice.
