Major life events need major planning.
You may not think a will is necessary right now, but your life’s milestones demand you make plans for the future. A will protects your assets and ensures your loved ones are taken care of, no matter what.
Marriage
Be clear on what your spouse or civil partner receives in case something happens. Make sure you are in control of what they inherit. Don't leave it to state legislation to decide.
Parenthood
Appoint a guardian for your children, and ensure your estate is used to provide for them as they grow. Your children’s future is your top priority.
Homeownership
Your home is likely one of your biggest assets. Ensure it goes to the people who matter most, without confusion or disputes.

Don’t wait for "someday" ...the best time is now.
You’ve just hit a major milestone in life - don’t let the future catch you off guard. Having a will is one of the most responsible and caring steps you can take to protect what matters most. Without a will, decisions about your estate, assets, and even guardianship of your children could be made without your input.
Marriage or partnership: Ensure your partner is legally protected.
Becoming a parent: Secure your children's future today.
Buying a home: Protect your most valuable asset.
Quick, simple, secure.
Create your legally binding will.
In Ireland, you don’t need a solicitor for a legally binding will. The basic requirements are:
-
Legal age and mental capacity: You must be at least 18 or married and of sound mind.
-
In writing: Your will must be written down.
-
Signature and witnesses: You must sign your will in front of two witnesses, who must also sign in your presence. Witnesses cannot be beneficiaries or their spouses.
Our solicitor approved step-by-step tool guides you through the process, similar to what a solicitor would ask, and our will specialist will ensure your answers are accurate and clear.
If your situation is more complex like for example you own foreign property, have a child with special needs or have been separated we’ll advise consulting a solicitor for the best approach.
Quick, simple, secure.
Why choose our digital wills?
Simple & Fast: It only takes 15 minutes to complete your will from the comfort of your home.
Affordable Pricing: Unlike traditional legal services, our wills are competitively priced, starting at just €130, with no hidden fees.
Secure & Legal: Your data is secure and our solicitor approved will ensures your final wishes are clear and accurate to avoid any future disputes.
Without a will, you risk leaving your loved ones unprotected.
If you pass away without a will, your assets may not go where you intend. Instead, the courts will decide how your property and finances are distributed, potentially leaving your spouse or children without the support they need.
Real-Life Example:
Sarah and John bought their first home together. John passed away unexpectedly without a will. Sarah had to navigate complicated legal processes and was not guaranteed to receive their jointly owned property. A will would have made the transition smooth and less stressful during such a difficult time.
Young families and first-time homeowners trust us.

What happens if you die without leaving a will?If you die without a will in Ireland, you are said to have died intestate, and the distribution of your estate is governed by the Succession Act 1965. In this situation, the law dictates how your assets are divided among your surviving family members, following a set formula. If you have minor children and haven't named a guardian in a will, the Succession Act 1965 will determine who will take care of them. If there is no will and you haven't appointed an executor this can cause disputes amongst family members in deciding who administers the estate.

How do you choose who inherits your estate?In most cases, people leave their estate to their spouse, civil partner, children or a mix of these things. If you are married or in a civil partnership, then your partner will automatically receive 50% of your estate if you have no children or 33% if you do have children. If you are not married or in a civil partnership then your partner will not automatically get anything. Your children have no automatic legal right share of any inheritance so it’s important to consider this when writing your will. Being clear on your instructions is important and easy to do using our guidance tool. If you have children or other beneficiaries under 18, any inheritance they receive cannot legally be managed by them until they are at least 18. For this reason you must also name a trustee to manage it on their behalf until they are old enough. You may also choose to leave part of your estate to other relatives, friends, or even charitable organisations. Our step by step tool will help you make these decisions as you answer the questions.

Can I write my will myself?Yes, you can write your own will in Ireland and to make it legally binding you must be over 18, sound of mind, have it in writing and sign it along with and in the presence of two witnesses. In saying this, with such an important document, people usually use a solicitor or an online will writing service like Willwise to make sure that they have thought about everything and ensure that they understand any legal rights their family may have over the inheritance. Our step by step tool will help you ask and answer those questions.
-
What is an executor, and how do you appoint one?An executor is a person named in your will to carry out your wishes after you pass away. Their responsibilities include managing your estate, applying for probate, and distributing assets to beneficiaries. You can appoint a friend, family member, or professional executor. It’s important to choose someone who is trustworthy and capable of handling legal and financial matters.
-
How much inheritance tax will my beneficiaries have to pay?In Ireland, inheritance tax, known as Capital Acquisitions Tax (CAT), is charged on the inheritance of property, money, or possessions. Spouses and civil partners do not pay any inheritance tax. The tax-free threshold for children is currently €335,000 rising to €400,000 per child in 2025. Any inheritance above this threshold is taxed at 33%. For other beneficiaries, such as siblings or friends, the threshold is lower, and any inheritance exceeding it is taxed.
-
What are common reasons to update a will?You should update your will after significant life changes, such as: Getting married - once you get married your will is nullified Having children or grandchildren Divorce or separation Major changes in your financial situation The death of a beneficiary, guardian or executor
