Chances are you will not have an opportunity to share some final thoughts and make any important statements before you pass away.

You might want to express thanks to people who influenced your life, share some secrets, or tell people what you really thought. Do you have a secret that should only be discovered after you have gone?

Every member can write messages to their family, friends, colleagues or even strangers. You can even choose the media and delivery method of your choice. They are then released by your Keyholder® at the appropriate time.

MyKeyholders™ - Specify Your Personal Keyholders®

Every member designates one or more "Keyholders®" who have the power to unlock the information stored by them on this site.  Each Keyholder® is provided with a unique encryption key ID known only to the LegalWills.ca member.

Due to the secure method used to encrypt all of the data stored on our servers, we are unable to retrieve any data written by a member without the above Keyholder® ID.  The LegalWills.ca member is the only person with knowledge of this information and they must be sure to communicate it to each of their Keyholders®.  This technique ensures the utmost protection of the security and privacy of the sensitive information left here by our members.

MyProfile™ - Maintain Your Membership Information

All of your personal membership information is just a click away.  Use this service any time information such as your name, address, or email address changes.  Your important documents such as your Last Will and Testament are updated automatically.

MySecurity™ - Specify Your Security Settings

Using this service you can specify security settings for your information. To prevent unauthorized or premature access to your wishes, we can automatically notify you the instant that one of your designated Keyholders® logs in and/or unlocks your wishes. 

You can also specify a delay of any number of hours or days before the information is actually unlocked and made accessible to your Keyholder®.  This gives you time to disable access to your information should your privacy or security ever be compromised.

MyWalletCards™ - Cards for your Purse or Wallet

Sure, you've stored all this important information at LegalWills.ca, but how can you be sure that it is released once you're gone?  The most obvious answer is to ensure that your designated Keyholders® are aware of this information and have the information necessary to unlock it when the time comes.

However, it helps to be safe.  So, if you choose, we can send to you or to your designated Keyholders® one or more LegalWills.ca wallet-sized cards, to keep in their purse or wallet.  Each wallet card is individually customized to include your name, your Keyholder's® name, and all the information they need to login and access your wishes.
