It is a mistake to include a list of your assets in your Will; your assets change frequently, and the signing process for updating a Will each time an asset is added to your estate is simply too onerous.

How It Works

When you create a Will or legal document at LegalWills, you can designate up to 20 different Keyholders®. Your chosen Keyholders® will be given the trust and power to unlock specific information within your account such as health care directives, funeral wishes, final messages, uploaded files, Power of Attorney, or Last Will and Testament.

You can also implement security mechanisms to prevent premature access to these documents. The entire process of creating your Will and other legal documents at LegalWills is seamless and iterative, meaning you can continue to make changes until you're happy with the final product.

Frequently Asked Questions

Once you have passed away, your Executor has the responsibility of gathering your assets and notifying loved ones of your passing.

The gathering of assets is extremely difficult as they range from bank accounts, insurance policies, online accounts, cash, possessions, and money that is owed to you. It is almost always extremely difficult for an Executor to do this, and it is impossible for the Executor to know when the task has been completed. As a result, millions of bank accounts are sitting dormant with no claim on them, simply because they were not known to exist.

MyLifelocker™ is a secure, convenient way of ensuring that your estate will include all of your assets.

You will name Keyholder(s)® for your LifeLocker. These people have the ability to unlock services using a unique, randomly generated access code.

You are able to set a period of time that should pass from the attempt to unlock the service, to the actual unlocking. During this time, we will attempt to notify you by email that your Keyholder® is attempting to unlock your LifeLocker.

If you are still alive, you can intervene and keep your LifeLocker locked. If however, you have passed away, your LifeLocker is then shared with your Keyholder®.

All of your information stored at LegalWills.ca is safe and secure. This website uses state-of-the-art digital encryption and security technologies to protect your privacy and security.

Your information is so highly encrypted that nobody has access to this information other than yourself and your trusted Keyholders® using their randomly generated personal key.  Even the owners and administrators of LegalWills.ca are not able to access your information due to the software design and encryption methods used.

All data passing from your computer to this website is authenticated and encrypted using 256-bit "SSL encryption".  This is the most advanced level of encryption available today, and it means that any information sent from your computer is scrambled in a way which makes it completely unintelligible if intercepted.  When you are on a secure section within the web site, a padlock will appear on your web browser.  This is your assurance that the encryption is in place and that you are communicating across a secure link.

Furthermore, this website uses an industry standard high security streaming-encryption algorithm known as "RSA" to encrypt all of your information before it is stored online.  To give you a feeling for the level of security provided by this encryption, it has been estimated that with the most efficient algorithms known to date, it would take a computer operating at 1 million instructions per second over 300 quintillion years (that's 3 with 20 zeros behind it!) to break the encryption. That's several trillion times longer than the age of the Earth.

The Ultimate Guide to Preparing a Will

Everybody should have a Will. Not making a Will is unfair to those you leave behind.

Even if your plans for estate distribution are simple and you do not have many assets, it is still much easier for the people that you leave behind to work with a Will than to resolve the estate of a person who has died intestate (without a Will).

If you do not feel that you have significant assets now, remember that your Will only comes into effect when you die, not now, and you cannot possibly predict how large your estate will be when your Will is required.

Making a Will in Canada – the Complete Guide to your Options

Your Last Will and Testament allows you to speak after you have passed away. It does absolutely nothing and has no powers whatsoever all the time you are alive.

But as soon as you die your Will has two key functions: it allows you to make key appointments and it allows you to describe the distribution of your assets. These assets include money, possessions, houses, investments, everything that you own.

Making a Will is one of the most important responsibilities of every adult, and it should not be put off until a distant day in the future when you are "old".
