Topic #: 2
Svetlana is a 45-year-old single mother with two children: Georgi 17; and Ingrid 13. The children's father, Vladimir, has a serious gambling problem and only visits them sporadically. Vladimir's younger brother Sergei, on the other hand, is a dependable and helpful uncle who helps Svetlana regularly with the children. Svetlana meets with Robert, an insurance agent to review her life insurance needs because she wants to make sure that her children are taken care of if she were to die prematurely. Robert suggests that she purchase a $200,000 policy. Who should she name as a beneficiary?
In Quebec, disability insurance benefits that replace income due to a disability are generally exempt from seizure by creditors. This protection exists to ensure that individuals who are unable to work due to disability can still cover their basic needs without creditor interference. The tax-free status of the benefits does not directly impact their seizure exemption. Therefore, Paola's disability insurance benefits are protected from garnishment due to her disability, as stipulated by Quebec's insurance and creditor protection laws.
