Did you know that you can use Willify to create your own valid Will? It’s simple, cost effective and legally binding.
One of the first things to consider when writing a Will is making sure that it is valid. When you write a Willify Will, we walk you through the whole process of putting your wishes in writing and helping you ensure that your Will is valid, and that it is legally binding.
We cover all the things dear to your heart, including:
- Ensuring your children are provided for;
- Helping you choose a Guardian to ensure you children will be well looked after;
- Care of your pets;
- Appointing Executors to administer your estate;
- Specific gifts to give away to loved ones or friends;
- Gifts to charities (where applicable);
- Distributing your estate; and
- Final wishes that you may have upon passing away, such as cremation/burial and organ donation.
Willify Wills are prepared by estate planning lawyers. The kind of lawyers whom drink tea from tiny tea cups, and whom consider a raging night on the town as doing the laundry whilst watching David Attenborough’s latest masterpiece… whilst uttering “breathtaking”, a few too many times. The kind of detail-focused lawyers whom you want in your corner.
We put in the hard yards developing this software, whilst giving careful consideration to Australian estate laws and Will guidelines.
The great news is that you can have your Will prepared right now! You don’t need to go to a lawyer’s office. You don’t need to take time off from work. You don’t need to sit in traffic.
We recommend setting aside 20-30 minutes to complete your lawyer-written will. You will know ahead of the time the exact price for your will. There are no guessing games.
We have put together a step-by-step guide to assist you in printing, signing and storing your Will. Our guide covers important topics such as:
- Printing your Will;
- Carefully choosing two witnesses;
- Signing and dating your Will in front of two witnesses: your witnesses are required to be over the age of 18 years old, they must have capacity to understand that they are acting as your witness for the purpose of you signing your Will, and they must be able to physically see you sign your Will. In addition, your witnesses should not be your partner, ex-partner, executor or beneficiary under your Will. You could consider asking colleagues, neighbours or friends, to witness you signing your Will.
- Storing the Will safely and telling your Executor where your Will is stored.
Follow our step-by-step process to complete your will. Nothing is left to chance here.
At the end the process, you have completed a valid, and legally binding Will. Your Will does not expire. Life can be uncertain but you now have peace of mind. You know that your wishes have been documented and your family members will be looked after. That’s not bad for 20 minutes of work!
The future of your loved ones is too important to take any chances.
