After you sign
Your will is only the start.
Every Trusted Hands will is wired into the same legacy system: executors notified automatically, documents stored alongside the will, and a secure portal that unlocks for your executors when the time comes.
1. You choose your executor(s)
Appoint up to four executors as you build your will, plus named substitutes in case your first choice can't act. Friend, family member or professional - your call.
2. They're emailed automatically
The moment you finalise your will, each executor receives a calm, clear email explaining they've been appointed and what happens next. They see no documents while you're alive.
3. Family Vault stays with you
Add insurance policies, deeds, identity papers, financial accounts, funeral wishes and letters of wishes to your encrypted vault. You control what's shareable and what stays private.
4. Vault unlocks when the time comes
After a death is confirmed, your executor portal unlocks. They find the will, the Executor Pack, a live checklist and the documents you chose to share - all in one place. No drawer-rifling.

Who is a single will for?
If you are not married or in a civil partnership, or if your circumstances differ from your partner's, a single will is the simplest and clearest option. You can always upgrade to a Mirror, Joint or Mutual will later.
More than a will
Every Trusted Hands will is wired into a legacy system that goes beyond the document itself. Add the Family Vault with the annual subscription to store insurance policies, deeds and the other documents your executors will actually need - all in one encrypted place, ready to share via the secure executor portal when the time comes.
