Website Accessibility Statement
Our Commitment to Digital Inclusion
LegalWills.ca
is committed to providing a website experience that is accessible, inclusive, and user-friendly for all individuals, including people with disabilities.
We believe digital accessibility is both a responsibility and an opportunity to better serve our customers, partners, and communities.
We strive to ensure that all visitors, whether using assistive technologies such as screen readers, magnification software, voice recognition tools,
or keyboard-only navigation, can access our content and services effectively.
Accessibility Standards and Conformance
LegalWills.ca
endeavors to conform to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2, Level AA,
as published by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). These guidelines are globally recognized as the
standard for accessible digital content and are designed to make web experiences more perceivable, operable, understandable, and robust for users of all abilities.
While accessibility is an ongoing effort and no website can guarantee absolute accessibility in every circumstance,
LegalWills.ca
is committed to continual improvement and proactive remediation.
Testing, Evaluation, and Continuous Improvement
To support our accessibility objectives:
- All website pages are regularly evaluated using third-party automated accessibility testing tools, including Pa11y-CI and Google Lighthouse.
- Automated scan results are reviewed internally by our development and quality teams.
- Identified accessibility issues are prioritized and addressed as part of our ongoing development, maintenance, and release processes.
- Accessibility considerations are incorporated into design, development, and content updates to reduce the introduction of new barriers.
In addition to automated testing, we collaborate with third parties where appropriate to supplement our internal efforts and help maintain alignment with
WCAG success criteria.
Assistive Technology and Browser Compatibility Testing
LegalWills.ca
tests its website using a representative range of modern technologies to help ensure broad compatibility, including:
- The current and immediately prior two versions of major, standards-compliant desktop web browsers that individually represent more than 5% market share.
- Commonly used web-based assistive technologies, including:
- Screen readers (e.g., JAWS, NVDA, VoiceOver)
- Screen magnification tools
- Voice dictation software
- Keyboard-only navigation workflows
This approach helps ensure our website remains usable across diverse platforms and access methods.
Improving the User Experience for Everyone
LegalWills.ca
uses WCAG 2.2 Level AA as a guiding framework not only to support users with disabilities,
but also to improve usability, clarity, and overall experience for all visitors. Accessible design benefits everyone by making content easier to navigate,
understand, and interact with.
