Hull on Estates
Hull on Estates is a series of podcasts for the Canadian legal community dealing with issues and insights surrounding estate planning in Canada. Hosted by the lawyers of Hull and Hull LLP, the podcasts will touch on some of the key considerations when planning wills and estates

This week on Hull on Estates, Paul Trudelle and Holly LeValliant discuss what is required to prove a common law relationship. The courts take a liberal approach to determining whether a relationship is common law.  The general factors used to assess the relationship are shelter, sexual and personal behavior, services, social, societal, support and children. Paul and Holly reference two cases in the podcast: Molodowich v. Penttinen and Perkovic v. McClyment.
