Simple Will

A will under the Wills Act, RSNS 1989, c 505. Names your personal representative or executor, beneficiaries, gifts, and final wishes for probate in the Probate Court of Nova Scotia. Holograph wills are valid in Nova Scotia for wills made on or after August 19, 2008.

Best for you if

  • Adults with a clear list of beneficiaries and an executor in mind
  • Estates under $1M without complex trust planning
  • Canadian-resident assets only (property, accounts, vehicles, personal items)
  • You want a fast, valid will without a $500 lawyer consult

Not the right fit if

  • Estates with trust structures, foreign property, or business succession planning
  • Contested estate matters or family conflict already underway
  • High-net-worth estates needing tax-optimization strategy
  • Anyone uncertain about capacity (mental competence) at the time of signing

What's included

  • Plain-English wizard, step-by-step
  • Signed-ready PDF, formatted to Nova Scotia requirements
  • Filing instructions appendix (court name, fee, where to submit)
  • AI assistant access included for paid forms (unlimited for subscribers)
  • Free re-generation for 90 days if you need to revise
