Criminal Fraud v. Civil Fraud (estate fraud)

Criminal fraud means, you pay back the money, and go to jail.

Civil (estate) fraud means, you pay back the money, and you do not go to jail.

Who pays for criminal prosecutor :  the State, i.e. Canada, the government

Who pays for civil prosecutor:  you do, the beneficiary

Therefore, estate fraudsters usually get away with their fraud.

The rule of law is seriously compromised.

If there is no money to pay back the money defrauded, do bankruptcy.

Affidavit of June 30 2025.

 I just do not understand if I am not happy with a purchase from Amazon, I do not have to pay, but if I am not happy with what a lawyer does, I still have to pay.

Justice and the Probate

Justice must not only be done, but must also be seen to be done.

The law says that due process and accountability matter.  But in my case, the probate system did not work; it wasn't intuitive.  There seems to be two routes: one the legislature piecemeals together and the other what the lawyers do. Unfortunately, in BC, lawyers have to do probate at a great disservice to the public.  It is like a deep hole with cascading footnotes.  There are nuances and then there are more nuances.  For example, the law says where there is no will and only siblings surviving, the majority decides who should be the administrator.  It does not say the majority has to chose the best qualified so it becomes a popularity contest which is not the intent of the legislation. It is implicit that the beneficiaries should choose the best qualified.  But what happens if they don't.  It can be the one who has a grade 3 education and for whom an attorney can manipulate that might be.  Lawyers need clients, and it is best that they have clients who lack knowledge. If a lawyer makes a mistake who would know.  And lawyers make mistakes often.  Ask any person who served as an executor what a fiduciary is, and they would not know.  

How probate works

 I have been reviewing the research I have been doing and I am shocked at how the process can be compromised.  I have been reading a book authored by Wes Mussio, Fair Inheritance.  Although he tired to make the information easy to understand, I have a great deal of questions I could ask. I even found videos he did on YouTube explaining in short videos different segments of the process.  An estate can, even a simple/modest one, be complex.  

Can Estates be fast tracked for a fast buck.

 Can Estates be fast tracked by lawyers for a fast buck 

When you hired a lawyer, his fees are paid first, even before taxes are paid.  They have priority. It can happen that after a lawyers gets paid, there is nothing left.  Lawyers might ask for a retainer at the beginning and wait for the rest at the end because they know they will get their money.  

When you do not understand something, you follow the money.
