Your will, drafted free by an expert in 48 hours.

75% of South Africans die without a valid will. Without one, your family faces a Master's Office estate process, frozen assets, and no say over who raises your children.

Traditional estate planning costs R45,000 to R150,000 through a lawyer or financial advisor. We've built a different model. No upfront fees. No complicated process.

Estate planning

Draft my free will It takes one conversation and 48 hours.

Most people plan to sort it out eventually.

The problem is, eventually doesn't have a date. When an estate has no valid will, your family doesn't just grieve. They spend months dealing with estate administration through the Master's Office, paying executor fees, conveyancing fees, and estate taxes.

Assets get frozen. Properties can sell under pressure. Business interests lose value. Guardianship of your children gets decided by a court, not by you.

The cost of not planning

What an unplanned estate actually costs.

South African families lose time, money, and control when the estate plan is missing or outdated.

75% die without a valid will.

Without a valid will, the Master's Office process takes over and your family has no clear instruction from you.

What you get

Here's exactly what's included, starting with a free will.

A will gives clear instructions. Protection plans, trusts, and estate administration make sure those instructions hold up when your family needs them most.

Will drafting, free, always.

Not a template. Not a form you fill in alone. A real will, drafted by a qualified professional, covering who receives your assets, who raises your children, and how family conflict gets prevented before it starts.

"My situation isn't complicated enough yet."

The complexity of your estate doesn't determine whether your family goes through a formal estate process. Having no will does. Whether you own one property or five, a simple will takes the same 48 hours and costs you nothing to draft.

Trusts

Built for your family's specific situation.

Children's Trust

Protects your children's inheritance until they reach a specified age, ensuring their financial wellbeing on your terms.

Widow's Trust

Provides for your spouse immediately, while ring-fencing assets for your children's long-term inheritance.

Shari'ah-compliant wills

Once your estate plan is in place, optional add-ons expand your cover at a marginal additional monthly premium.
