Scharf Estate Law

About Scharf Estate Law

HoneyScharf is an Ottawa law firm formed in July 2025, when David Scharf's Scharf Estate Law joined with Eric Honey's Ottawa law practice. Scharf founded Scharf Estate Law in 2022 to help clients with estate planning, estate administration, and estate disputes, after moving to Ottawa from Saskatoon in 2011. Honey had practiced law in Ottawa for more than four decades before the two practices combined. The merger kept the same Richmond Road address, phone number, and staff on both sides, and the firm's document vault holds all 45,000 client documents on file.

HoneyScharf practices in estate planning, including wills and powers of attorney, estate administration for executors, estate dispute resolution, and real estate transactions such as home purchases, sales, title transfers, and mortgage refinancing. The firm operates virtually, with team members working from home and most clients meeting by video call, though it will meet clients in person at their home or office, or arrange another venue, when that's preferred. Scharf, the firm's founder, holds a Bachelor of Arts in philosophy and a Bachelor of Law from the University of Saskatchewan and a Master of Journalism from Carleton University, and belongs to the Law Society of Ontario, the Canadian Bar Association, and the Ontario Bar Association.
