Most painless big decision we ever made

I was going through sites for Estate Lawyers, sites for Will kits and sites like Willful over the course of a year.
For me the cost-benefit ratio was perfect at Wilful. Within a short time, my wife and I both read through the requirements, and completed the Will questionnaire. The next day we visited friends to get their signatures as witnesses, and were able to register our wills online with Willful.

We’re so glad to hear that Willful struck the right balance for you in terms of cost and simplicity. It’s great that you and your wife were able to complete everything smoothly—and even better that you could turn to friends to help finalize the process.

Best regards,

Hi Kevin,

Thanks for your feedback—we really appreciate you taking the time to share your experience.

At the moment, we don’t send printed copies by mail. Once your documents are complete, they’re available for download so you can print and sign them at your convenience. This approach helps us keep the process simple and affordable.

That said, offering printed copies is something we’re actively thinking about for the future, and your feedback is really helpful as we consider ways to improve.

The Willful experience was great especially as my lawyer had disappeared with the original copy of my will. It was simple and easy to use.
I would have given 5 stars except that I found that way too many reminder emails were in my inbox. It takes time to put this all together - perhaps less often please.

Easy to understand and follow instructions. The only reason why I left 4 instead of 5 stars, is because I would have liked to have added comments in different sections. Either way, I'd recommend.

Hi Tara,

Thank you so much for your thoughtful review — we’re really glad to hear you found Willful easy to understand and follow!

We appreciate your feedback about wanting to add comments in different sections. That’s a great point, and we’ve shared it with our product team as we continue improving the experience.

To clarify, Willful walks you through a guided questionnaire and uses your answers, combined with templated clauses from our legal advisors, to generate your will. There aren’t currently sections where users can enter free-form text or extra notes — this was an intentional choice to help prevent users from accidentally invalidating or contradicting a legal clause.

That said, some people choose to write a letter of instruction to their executor — a separate document stored with the will, used to provide more context or details about their wishes. While it’s not legally binding, it’s often honoured and can be a helpful way to share additional guidance with loved ones.

If you ever need to include custom clauses or addendums that go beyond what Willful offers, it may be best to speak with a lawyer to ensure your wishes are properly reflected.

Thanks again for the recommendation — it truly means a lot!

We recently used Willful to create our wills and were thoroughly impressed with the entire experience. The platform is incredibly user-friendly, with a clean and simple design that made a potentially overwhelming task feel completely manageable. The step-by-step guidance was clear, and we appreciated how straightforward the whole process was from start to finish. Willful gave us exactly what we needed—no unnecessary complications, just peace of mind. Highly recommend to anyone looking to get their will done quickly and easily!

Hi Scott,

Our goal is to make estate planning as simple and stress-free as possible, so it's wonderful to know we helped bring you peace of mind. We really appreciate the recommendation!

Step-by-step ease!

Really easy to go through the basics of preparing a will. The system is intuitive and takes you through, step by step. The only thing I'd change is having an option to add all the extra details (wishes, etc.) in the program itself and not have to do it in separate docs somewhere else.

Hi Jessica,

Thanks so much for the thoughtful review! We're so glad to hear you found the platform easy to use and that the step-by-step process made things simple.

We really appreciate your feedback about adding more personal details—like wishes—directly in the platform. This is something we’ve heard before, and while we understand how valuable that feature could be, we’re cautious about including open-ended sections within the legal documents. Sometimes, well-intentioned “wishes” can accidentally contradict other parts of the will or include instructions that aren’t legally enforceable.

That said, it’s on our radar, and we’re always exploring safe ways to offer more flexibility while keeping everything legally sound.

Thanks again for choosing Willful, and please don’t hesitate to reach out if you have any other suggestions or questions!

Really expensive for what it is

Really expensive for what it is. You can on my do extremely basic stuff. If you have children and want to detail who will get them and how the money will workout with that there are no options other than giving everyone to one person

Antwoord van Willful

Hi Jeremy,

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that you didn’t find the platform met your expectations.

Willful is built for Canadians with simple estate planning needs, and we recognize that more complex family situations—especially when it comes to guardianship and managing money for children—can require more tailored guidance.

Just to clarify a few points:

In Canada, the appointment of a guardian in a will (the person who will care for your children) only lasts for 90 days. After that, the guardian must apply to the court for permanent custody.

When you name a minor as a beneficiary with Willful, their inheritance is automatically held in trust. Your chosen executor acts as the trustee and oversees how those funds are used.

While the will doesn’t specify exact amounts, it does outline that funds can be used by the guardian for the reasonable care of your child—things like school, food, clothing, and housing—until the child receives their full inheritance at the age you’ve set.

If you’d like to include more detailed instructions—for example, defining what “reasonable” means to you—you’d need to work with a lawyer. You could also choose to discuss those details directly with your executor so they understand your wishes clearly.

We appreciate your input—it helps us continue to improve and serve a wider range of families.

Please don’t hesitate to reach out if you have any other questions or suggestions.

Unable to download the document due to bug

I was unable to complete the process due to a circular logic bug. Your system would not let me download the document because it has to be finalized. However if I click to finalize it tells me to download, print and sign.

I filled out all the forms, answered questions but never actually seen the document, cannot download it. Tried on mobile phone as well as computer browser, same problem.
