Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a Will? What happens if I don't have one?

For people who die without having left a Will, their assets are divided according to the pre-set property division rules that are in place in their province, and the administrator of their Will is usually decided by a court.

By drafting a Will, you get to choose who your assets go to, and who oversees the process.

Do I need a lawyer?

No, there is no requirement for a lawyer.

In order for a Will to be legally valid, all that's needed is for it to be properly signed and witnessed. You must be a competent adult of sound mind, and so must be your witnesses.

Rather, traditionally, a lawyer's role has been only to advise - to take instructions and draft the will using common Will templates and software.

However, now, due to the convenience of the internet, we provide direct access to the Will-drafting software that a lawyer would use, cutting out the need for a lawyer.

Your service is much cheaper than a lawyer. Why?

This is due to the fact that you are no longer paying for a lawyer's time, and are instead getting direct access to the Will-drafting software that they would use.

You get to enter in your Will Plan and build out your Will yourself, instead of being forced to pay a lawyer hefty legal fees just for them to do the exact same thing on their computer.

Even though you are not getting legal advice, because Will-drafting is standardized by software, your finalized Will will be the same as what you would get from a lawyer.

Overall we expect Online Wills services such as ours to grow over time and reduce the need for a lawyer for standard Will-drafting.

If however you feel that your estate is highly complex, then instead we recommend that you seek legal advice from a lawyer.

That said, our services cover the majority of Will scenarios, and for this reason you should attempt to complete our Will-Building Questionnaire Form regardless to at least see if one of our Will Plans suits you.

What is your Payment Model?

We offer our product entirely for free. Any payment you make to us is optional and voluntary.

At the end of the our Will-Building Questionnaire Form your free Wills will be available to you for download.

At that time, there will be a payment form for you to make an optional payment by credit card, if you choose to do so.

You may also make a standalone payment/donation directly, without having to go through the Will-Building Questionnaire, by clicking here.

What Information is Required?

Other than your name, your province of residence, and the names of your intended heirs - nothing.

We don't require any documents. We don't require any lists of property or accounts. We don't require any old Wills.

The reason for this is that, in a Will, there is no requirement that you have to identify individual pieces of property.

For the most past, property is referred to generally: i.e. "everything to my wife", or "in equal shares to my surviving children". That's it! But if you do want to name certain items specifically, i.e. "my Red Corvette to my brother", you have that option as well.

Therefore, all that we ask is that before you start the Will drafting process, you take a minute to think about your basic Will plan.

You should be aware about what you own and how you own it, and have an intention in mind for it.

Your general Will plan should cover:

1. Who you want your assets to go to (your beneficiaries)
2. In what shares/percentages
3. Who you pick as an alternate choice in case your first choice beneficiaries are not alive

As long as you have thought about that, our Will building process will be very quick and easy!

Which provinces in Canada do you serve?

We draft Wills for individuals living in all provinces in Canada except for Quebec.

See All Other Questions

What exactly do you mean by an "Online Will"?

When we refer to our product as an "Online Will" we mean a Will that is drafted online, through computer software.

After the final Will file has been created on your computer, then it must be printed through a printer and signed in person, in ink, and stored safely, as an original.

In Canada, Wills must be signed, stored, and submitted to court as an original hard copy.

Digital files, digital signatures, and digital storage are not allowed in the case of Wills.

I have an old Will from many years ago, but I want to use your service to make a new Will. What's the procedure?

That's fine. There is no special procedure. Just use our service as is.

Any new Will, once finalized, takes the place of an older Will and cancels it out.

Once your new Will is properly signed and witnessed, you may destroy your older Will.

What form of payment do you accept?

We accept payment via credit card. Your payment is processed securely through Stripe payments, one of the world's largest third-party online payment processors.

There will also be options for paying through Apple Pay or Google Pay on applicable devices where they are enabled.

Whom should I select as witnesses to my Will?

Once you have your finalized Will you will need to arrange for two witnesses.

1. They must be an adult.
2. They must be of sound mental capacity.
3. They must not be your spouse, partner, or child.
4. They must not be someone included in your Will, i.e. they cannot be someone who receives something under your Will.

They can be any adult who meets the necessary criteria. There is no requirement that a witness be a lawyer or a notary.

Good recommendations: neighbours, friends, or co-workers.

Do you offer legal advice?

No, we do not.

We are a web service offering use of a Will-drafting software.

We do not offer legal advice. We are not a law firm.

If you require legal advice then you should consult with a lawyer in your jurisdiction.

I think my estate is highly complex. Can I use your service or do I need a lawyer?

Our services cover the majority of Will scenarios, and for this reason you should attempt to complete our Will-Building Questionnaire Form.

That said, in certain situations you must seek out the advice of a lawyer in your jurisdiction instead. These situations include, but are not limited to i. trust for a dependent person, ii. ongoing or potential divorce/separation dispute, iii. extremely large net worth, iv. mental illness or lack of mental capacity, and v. involvement in litigation.

Can I get a Joint Will with my Spouse?

Two people cannot sign a Joint Will, however you can get Matching Wills for a Couple.

Who created this service?

This application was created by a lawyer who practiced in Ontario for a number of years before changing fields to become a web developer.

What makes you different from other Online Will services and Will Kits?

Currently, there are a handful of other Online Wills services active in Canada. We distinguish ourselves on the following factors.

No registrations, signups, logins, or passwords

Other Online Wills services require you to register an account with their website in order to use their service. This is completely unnecessary. There is no reason for this.

We let you build out your Will immediately, without any hassle or barrier. While building it, you can review a draft, save it, edit it, or finalize it.

All that's needed in order to process your voluntary purchase, if you decide to make one, are your credit card details and your email address that we will send your Will to.

No fluff or gimmicks

We offer Will documents only.

That's it.

We don't offer "memberships", "online storage", "registries", "vaults", or "premium packages" because those are unnecessary.

Legally and practically speaking all that you need is to:

1. Have a Valid Will in place.
2. Keep the Signed Original.
3. Advise your Beneficiaries.

The single legal document that you need for your estate is a Will, and that is precisely what we offer. Contrary to deceptive marketing that you may read elsewhere, there are no "premium" versions of a Will.

Once you have signed your Will, it is your responsibility to store and keep this hard copy. That is all. Under Canadian Law, for Wills, courts will only accept originals. Any services offering "digital" or "online" storage are a sham.

Finally, any services along the lines of the "vaults" or "lockers" where you set out list of your property or upload important documents are nothing but unnecessary fluff designed to extract money from you.

To advise your beneficiaries of your property and personal information you may simply do so yourself, verbally. You don't have to pay money to a service for it.

My relative, who got their Will through you, has died. I have the Will. What do I do now?

You must go through the standard process that is known as probate.

You must retain the services of a lawyer in your jurisdiction who does probate.

I have a question, but it wasn't listed here. Where can I ask you directly?

That's not a problem! We'd be happy to assist you.
