Making a Will

This booklet is for Albertans who are thinking about writing or changing a Will. A Will allows you to pass on your belongings to your loved ones according to your wishes. If you die without a Will, it is often more costly, complicated and time-consuming to settle your estate.

This booklet gives general information only, not legal advice. If you need more detailed help or advice, see the end of the booklet for more resources.
