What do our customers say?
Yes. An online will made with a platform like Willful is legal in Canada. However, there are some steps that need to be taken in order for it to meet the criteria for a legal will in Canada. Each Willful will comes with detailed instructions for signing and witnessing so you can feel confident that you have a legally-valid will.

It’s a common myth that the government can claim your money and assets, but it’s not true. They do have the ability to have a say in how your assets or estate gets divided between family members. Creating a will also means you can control how your assets are distributed to beneficiaries over time, instead of children receiving a lump sum when they turn 18.

In Canada, as long as the will is in writing, signed by you and two adult witnesses who are present at the same time, it’s legally valid. The signed original should be stored safely where your executor or family can access it. However, if your estate is complex, consulting a lawyer may be a good idea.

We’re working to expand this option across Canada, but for now, customers in other provinces need to follow the traditional process to ensure their will is legally binding.
