Will – Single Man with No Children (Canada)

Creating a Last Will & Testament is a key part of financial planning, no matter how young or healthy you may be. It's essential to plan for the future of your survivors, and a Will is the most important legal document you can create to ensure that they won't be entangled in a lengthy probate process.

This Will is specifically designed for the situation where the testator (the person making the will) is a single man with no children. The Will first instructs the executor (also known as the trustee) to distribute specific property to a specified recipient (referred to as a beneficiary) (e.g. daughter will receive family jewelry). The remainder, after the testator’s debts are paid off, will then be distributed equally among the beneficiaries named by the testator.
