I love that Epilogue created this product in collaboration with RBC Royal Trust and has the backing of a trusted company.
This is how it should be done. Get it done, protect your wishes. Unlimited updates and many other benefits.
Honestly can't believe I am writing a review for my Will (lol) but I'm only doing it because that's how much I enjoyed Epilogue. It was such a quick, painless and easy thing to do for something we have been putting off for so long. The platform is extremely intuitive and straightforward anyone can do it. Feeling much better having things lined up for my boys for when I croak. Highly recommend!!!

Completing this process was very simple and straight forward. Having worked with many clients that were trying to work through a loved one's passing without a will, I knew that we owed it to our sons to have this done. The price was very affordable, and my inquiries were answered very promptly. I have and will continue to recommend Epilogue Wills to friends and family members.
Using Epilogue to create our will was fast, easy and efficient! Would highly recommend. The questions were thoughtful and sensitive. Thank you for the piece of mind ❤️
This was an excellent find.. Great instructions, Easy to follow. Didn't take a lot of time but ended up with a very professional product. Something we have been trying to do for months and just couldn't seem to find the time have it done. We found epilogue online, and it got amazing reviews and better yet we could do it in the comfort of our own home and on our time. Thanks!
I was impressed - then I found out that the price included both myself and my wife; I'm over the moon. So simple to use yet very comprehensive! I had been looking for something like this for a long, long time! Thank You sooooo much! Great Price - especially with the discount from being a RBC customer! Great Job!
I put off getting my Will done for years because the thought of trying to find a Lawyer, and pay a crazy amount of money was so discouraging. My Sister-In-law told me they had just used Epilogue on line to do theirs and found it easy and quick. I will agree. It took us 10 mins, and was such a peace of mind. The price was great. I have recommended this to other family members that haven't done their Will fir the same reasons I had. Thank you for making this easy.
I love that is was easy to create my will and POAs with epilogue. I printed the documents myself and the instructions are easy to follow. All I have to do now is sign the documents in front of my two chosen witnesses. Epilogue answered my questions promptly. I did not have to go see a lawyer and also when I want to make changes it is free whereas at a lawyer you would pay each time for this service. I will not hesitate to recommend Epilogue to friends and family.
If you're looking to write your will, I highly recommend using Epilogue. I was really impressed at how fast and convenient it was. I filled it out on my phone in less than 20 minutes. They do a good job laying everything out in clear, simple terms. Way better priced than the lawyer offices in town that I've talked to before about getting my will done and so much more convenient because I could do it anytime I wanted. You don't need to be tech savvy, easy prompts guide you through each section. If I ever need to make changes, I can just sign into their site and update my will as needed. Thanks Epilogue!

The estate planning service was fast, efficient, and really easy to understad. When I needed to talk to a live person, they were very responsive and offered great customer service. Would recommend.
Found out about Epilouge through work. The process of creating the Will & POA was really easy. I thought these documents are very complex to make & everyone would need a lawyer to make it, but depending upon your personal situation, the documents made here would be more than enough to meet your needs. Very good user experience
What a great way to complete your will. It was easy from the beginning to the end of the process. And I can make the necessary changes to my will as time goes on and life changes. Thank you for creating this.
When I first started the process of filling out my estate planning documents I noticed how thorough the documents were. They asked questions other will websites didn`t ask. I continued with the complete estate planning package and was quite pleased whwn finished. Best part is you can go back and update anytime if you forgot something or need to update. Well done Epilogue! I would recommend Epilogue to my friends and family.
Updating my will had been on my 'to do' list for over two years and I was dreading it. After spending less than 15 minutes to generate a legal document that was every bit as good as what I had paid a lawyer a lot of money to do years ago, I was so relieved. Why did I put this off for so long? Epilogue has made this so easy and so affordable. I have emailed the link to all my friends and relatives, who like me have been dreading this task for years. This is brilliant!
Epilogue makes the process of creating a will fast and affordable. The questions asked are not filled with jargon and are easy to understand. I highly recommend this service to anyone who wants to have peace of mind about their final wishes and affairs.
I found that creating my new will with Epilogue was easy. The process went seamlessly. I just have to fill in details and have it witnessed. I really appreciated the language used in the instructions. It was in terms the layman, like myself, could comprehend. Thanks Epilogue.
I had been meaning to obtain a Will since my first child was born almost 6 years ago.. I just kept putting it off. I came across Epilogue and was surprised at how easy, and fast, and not to mention very affordable it is. My husband and I finally have the peace of mind of having a complete Will for our children.
For years we've been putting off redoing our Will because it was a complicated ordeal the first time. We were blown away by the simplicity of the process of doing our will with Epilogue! and being able to update it as we need is amazing!
This is a great way to prepare a will. Simple but detailed. A much better experience than another site which I used a few years ago. Thank you very much for offering this service at an affordable price.
Saw the ad on Instagram, at first was a little hesitant most of the ads are bogus. Epilogue is not one of them. Very easy and straight forward, the program is easy to follow. Would recommend, also being a local company in Toronto to support helps.

Why You Need Powers of Attorney
It's common to think that we all have tons of time to get our affairs in order and we won't need to worry about deciding who will act for us when we're elderly and need the help. But, the sad reality is that incapacity can happen at any time. And one of the best ways to protect yourself is through well-documented POAs.
Your Will sent right to your door
Once you finish your Will, you'll have the option to have it printed and mailed straight to you.
When someone dies without a Will, it's called dying "intestate". When someone dies intestate, they don't get a say in important decisions like how their assets will be distributed, who gets to be in charge of the process, and who will take care of any minor children. The rules about how assets are distributed differ depending on the situation. Here are some of the rules that apply to someone who dies without a Will in Alberta:

• A spouse and children (all with the same spouse): The spouse gets everything.
• A spouse and children (all with the same spouse): The spouse gets everything.
• A spouse and children (not all with the same spouse): The spouse gets $150,000 or one-half the estate (whichever is greater) and the rest is divided equally among the deceased's children.
• A spouse and children (not all with the same spouse): The spouse gets $150,000 or one-half the estate (whichever is greater) and the rest is divided equally among the deceased's children.
• Children but no surviving spouse: Everything is split equally between children. If a child is not alive, but they have kids of their own who are alive (grandchildren of the person who died intestate), the deceased child's portion is divided equally among those kids.
• Children but no surviving spouse: Everything is split equally between children. If a child is not alive, but they have kids of their own who are alive (grandchildren of the person who died intestate), the deceased child's portion is divided equally among those kids.
• No living spouse or children: Everything goes to the deceased's parents (or surviving parent, if there is only one). If the parents aren't alive, then everything is split between the deceased's siblings (or the descendants of a sibling who is not alive).

A lawyer is not necessary to make a legally-binding Last Will and Testament in Alberta. In most cases, as long as the testator (person making the Will) is at least 18 and is "of sound mind", they can make a legal Will.

Generally, parents are the legal guardians of their children. If one of them passes away before the other, the surviving parent would usually continue to be the children's legal guardian.
Generally, parents are the legal guardians of their children. If one of them passes away before the other, the surviving parent would usually continue to be the children's legal guardian.
A parent (or other legal guardian of minor children) can name someone in their Will to take over that role in case they are the last surviving guardian of the children. If the last surviving guardian passes away (or if both guardians die at the same time), the person named in Will would assume the responsibilities of guardianship.

Someone's Will only takes effect once they are no longer alive. However, there are many cases where someone is alive, but is no longer capable of making decisions for themselves. For example, this can happen as a result of an accident or due to general cognitive decline that can occur with ageing. This is where a Power of Attorney (POA) becomes important.

A POA is made by someone while they are still mentally capable. It allows them to name the person who would be authorized to manage their financial affairs (e.g. paying bills, managing investments, selling property) in the event that they are alive but have lost the capacity to manage these things for themselves.

A Personal Directive is a legal document that allows someone to appoint an individual to make decisions about their personal and health care needs if they are not capable of making those decisions for themselves. In some provinces, this type of document is referred to as a Power of Attorney for Personal Care or a Health Care Directive, and is sometimes also referred to as a Living Will.

You might have heard that couples can create a joint Will to handle their assets and affairs, but that's not the case. In Canada, each person needs to create their own Will to make sure their final wishes are carried out according to their own preferences.
