I liked that I could do it in my own home. The questions were straight forward. Explanations were easy to understand. Cost was reasonable.
The section about residual inheritance if both my beneficiaries die and who would be a backup beneficiary was confusing to me. I was afraid I would make a mistake and that person would get the inheritance instead of my own kids.

The wording in the LegalWills needs to be easier to understand so that it's 100% clear
I found the questions to sometimes be a bit confusing, they should be clear, concise and extremely explanatory. Majority of us are not affluent in legalese.
Especially when it came to how to divide my belongings and assets if both my husband and my son die, i.e. Section c. It was a bit foggy as to the explanation, so I actually at one point wasn't sure if I was doing it correctly.
Trying to access my list of benefactors was sometimes difficult. It would only bring up three names in some sections, and none of them were relevant for a particular section I was working in.
I had to ask Chat or figure it out myself.
I also found there wasn't any space or area to type in/add my own notes. This is very important in Wills, so that the person can personalize and make important notes for the Executors and lawyer. I was very unhappy with the lack of this feature. The LegalWills document is not user-friendly in my opinion. I am happy to have done it, so that I at least have a current Will, it just should be more user-friendly and more thorough with space allotted for personal notes. Otherwise, it's an impersonal Will.

Thank you for this detailed feedback, Kathryn. We're glad you got a current Will done, but we're sorry parts of the process felt confusing. You raise several fair points. Clear, plain-language guidance is something we work on continuously, and we'll pass your comments to our product team for review.
Regarding personal notes: a Will itself is a formal legal document and doesn't include free-text sections, which is why you can attach a Memorandum. This is a separate document kept alongside your Will where you can add personal notes, instructions for your executors, or details about specific gifts.
If you have specific points about your experience that you'd like us to look into, we'd genuinely like to hear them. Please reach out to us at support@legalwills.ca and we'll follow up with you directly.
It was relatively straight forward
It was relatively straight forward. Help was provided along side a question for the most part.
The one problem was that I could not choose to divide the inheritance of one daughter (if she predeceaced me) among more than just her son.

Such an easy process
Such an easy process. I'm so happy with all of the services I got for $99. Where else can you get this for that?
26 augustus 2026
FYI basic option
When completing the forms ,the will, poa, funeral arrangements only the will was downloaded, you wanted extra for poa and funeral. I chose the basic package but no where in the instructions or description that only the will was included.... why would you let individuals fill out all the forms and only have a third of the paperwork accessible.

Thank you for your feedback.
To clarify what happened: the Essentials package covers the Will only. The Power of Attorney and Funeral Preferences documents you started are separate products included with the Premium and Ultimate packages. While filling out the Will you were able to try them out on a trial basis and preview the first page, but full access to those documents requires one of the higher-tier packages or an upgrade to include these additional services.
This breakdown is shown clearly in the package descriptions on our pricing page: https://www.legalwills.ca/Prices#packages.
The good news is that all of the answers you've already entered are saved in your account. If you'd like to unlock the remaining documents, an upgrade gives you immediate access without re-entering any information. If you have any other questions, please reach out to us at support@legalwills.ca.

A little disappointed with my experience
I purchased the Will and Power of Attorney service believing that the fee would include the preparation and notarization or legal execution of the documents.
I was a little surprised to find that the service mainly provided templates that I needed to complete myself. I had expected a more complete service, so this was not quite what I understood I was purchasing.
The templates may be useful, but I feel the service and what is included in the fee could be explained more clearly before purchase.
Hopefully, this feedback will help improve the experience for future customers.

Our platform is a guided document preparation service. You answer a series of step-by-step questions, and the service generates personalized legal documents built from your answers, so the finished documents are customized to your situation, not blank templates. That's also what allows us to offer this at such an affordable price.
Regarding notarization and legal execution, signing requirements vary by jurisdiction, and these steps are separate from document preparation. Commissioning documents typically involves an affidavit that must be signed before someone authorized to commission documents (eg: a notary, lawyer, or commissioner) and that professional service carries its own cost. At the price point of our packages, it simply wouldn't be possible to include those professional fees as well. That said, we do offer optional services to help, such as our partnership with NotaryPro for customers who want their documents notarized or their Affidavit of Execution commissioned.
We're also genuinely curious about what led to this expectation, as we don't advertise that notarization or legal execution is included anywhere on our site or in our materials. If there was something specific that gave that impression, we'd really like to know so we can correct it. If you'd like to share where you saw this, please reach out to us at support@legalwills.ca.
It was very well organized
It was very well organized. It made me think methodically of things that I may not have considered, including details that I believe will help my executors much better prepared.

I found all my requirements for…preparing a Will.
I found all my requirements for creating my Will and other options as well to choose from as ad on, should I require them. I'm very pleased with their service and have referred them to friends who either don't have a Will or need help creating one. Great service all round.

At the end you sent codes to register will. There is no need to register the will. Just another potential money grab.

Antwoord van LegalWills.ca
Thank you for your feedback, Danny.
We'd like to reassure you that there's no money grab here. Registering your Will with the Canada Will Registry is entirely optional, and the registration codes you received were included with your purchase at no extra charge. The Registry isn't required for your Will to be valid, it's simply an optional service that helps your executor and loved ones locate your Will quickly when the time comes. If you'd prefer not to register, nothing further is needed, and no payment is required.
We'd also be happy to clarify anything about the couple package. Each spouse creates their own Will in their own account, so there's no additional purchase involved for your wife's Will.
If you have any questions at all, please reach out to us at support@legalwills.ca. We're always glad to help.
Ease of use
Informative communications; easy instructions; ease of use in paying online for yearly fee. Thank you.
