Will for Single Adults in Ontario
A will built to Ontario’s Succession Law Reform Act and designed by a licensed lawyer — written with single adults without children in mind.
What single adults without children should know
- Without a will, your estate follows a default order — usually parents, then siblings — regardless of who is actually closest to you.
- Intestacy rules follow bloodlines, not relationships. Friends and partners get nothing by default.
- Choose who acts for you — with no spouse, there is no obvious default decision-maker.
- A will is the only way to leave anything to a charity or a friend.
- Ontario follows Ontario law — your will is governed by the Succession Law Reform Act.
- A formal Ontario will must be signed in front of two witnesses, and each witness must sign in front of you and the other witness.
- Ontario recognises holograph wills — a will written wholly in your own handwriting and signed by you, with no witnesses required.
