About RMS Estates Law

RMS Estates Law is a solo estate law practice in Toronto, run by lawyer Raluca Maria Soica out of an office on Sheppard Avenue East in North York. Soica works directly with clients, and the practice centres on wills and powers of attorney, estate administration and probate, guardianship applications for property and personal care, and professional executor services, along with residential real estate transactions tied to those estate matters.

Soica holds a Chartered Professional Accountant (CPA) designation in addition to a law license, a pairing the firm's about page describes as bringing legal and financial perspective together in estate work. The firm has published a plain language blog on estate and real estate topics going back to May 2020, including at least one post written in Romanian, on the Hague Apostille Convention taking effect in Canada in January 2024. RMS Estates Law also offers free downloadable estate planning and estate administration checklists, along with complimentary phone consultations.

The neighbourhood

The firm's suite on Sheppard Avenue East sits on the northern edge of the Consumers Road Business Park, a roughly 100 hectare district spanning North York and Scarborough that the City of Toronto describes as one of the city's most concentrated areas of office jobs, home to more than 18,000 workers. It's a business address rather than a storefront one, which fits a practice built around scheduled consultations, real estate closings and estate files rather than walk-in traffic.
