About PeffersLaw

PeffersLaw is a small estates law firm in Milton, Ontario. Principal lawyer Colleen Peffers opened the practice shortly after being called to the Ontario Bar on June 12, 2012, following several years working as a regional controller in accounting. Peffers later became a Chartered Professional Accountant, a background that helps in walking clients through the tax side of an estate plan alongside the legal side. The firm limits its work to estate law: wills and powers of attorney, estate administration and probate applications, and estate litigation such as contesting a will, will rectification, passing of accounts, and guardianship applications.

Associate lawyer Jason Moore, called to the Ontario Bar in 2023, handles much of that litigation work and appears regularly before the Ontario Superior Court of Justice. In November 2025, Peffers completed the Osgoode Certificate in Estate Litigation at Osgoode Hall Law School of York University. The office at 57 Martin Street runs mostly paperless, with files backed up to an offsite server and estate planning documents held in a Wills Vault; the firm also meets clients at home or in hospital when mobility or health makes a trip to the office difficult. Administrative support is handled remotely, including from Honduras, so the team brings language skills beyond English to client work.
