About you

A will starts with who you are. You can change anything later.

Please enter your first name.

Please enter your last name.

Please enter your address. It identifies you as the will-maker.

Relationship status

Your executor

Your executor carries out the wishes in your will. Choose someone you trust. Most people also name a backup.

Please name an executor to continue.

Who inherits your estate

Add the people who will share your estate. Leave the shares blank to divide everything equally.

Please add at least one beneficiary to continue.

Specific gifts

Leave particular items, like jewellery, a car or a sum of money, to particular people. Skip this step if you'd rather keep it simple.

Final wishes

Guardianship, funeral wishes and anything you'd like your loved ones to know. All optional.

Funeral wishes

e.g. "Thank you for a life full of love. Look after each other."

Your will is ready

Print it, sign it with two adult witnesses present at the same time, and keep it somewhere safe. Full signing instructions are included when you print.

Your will appears here as you begin

To be legally valid in Australia, your will must be printed and signed in front of two adult witnesses, who also sign and shouldn't be beneficiaries.

Why should you make a will?

Nearly half of Australian adults don't have a valid will. Without one, the law decides how everything you own is divided, not you. A will lets you:

  • Decide exactly who inherits your money, property and possessions
  • Appoint an executor you trust to carry out your wishes
  • Name a guardian for children under 18
  • Spare your family stress, cost and delays at an already difficult time

A will in three gentle steps.

No legal jargon, no appointments, no pressure. Gaia guides you through each decision and turns your answers into a formal document.

Common questions about wills

Yes. What makes a will valid isn't who typed it, it's how it's executed. You must be over 18 and of sound mind, the will must be in writing, and you must sign it in the presence of two adult witnesses who are present at the same time and who also sign it.

Your witnesses shouldn't be beneficiaries (or their spouses). Gaia includes a witness signing block and step-by-step instructions when you print your will.

You die "intestate", and a legal formula in your state or territory decides who inherits, typically your spouse and children in fixed proportions. Unmarried partners, stepchildren, friends and charities can miss out entirely.

A court also appoints someone to administer your estate, which is usually slower, more expensive and more stressful for your family than following a will.

For a straightforward estate, like a home, savings, super and possessions left to family, a properly signed and witnessed will like the one Gaia creates is generally all you need.

If your situation is more complex, such as a blended family, a business or trust, overseas assets, or a will you expect to be contested, you should have a solicitor draft it. Gaia Wills+ sits in between: you build the will, and a partnered estate solicitor reviews it.

A partnered estate solicitor reads your completed will, checks the wording and execution requirements, and flags anything ambiguous or risky, for example unclear gifts, shares that don't add up, or a witness who shouldn't be one.

You receive personalised feedback within 5 business days, plus 12 months of unlimited updates and secure digital storage with trusted-contact access.

Yes, and you should, after big life events like marriage, separation, a new child or buying property. Simply create a new will (it revokes the old one), sign and witness it again, and destroy the old copy.

The Gaia will builder is free to reuse as often as you like, and Gaia Wills+ includes 12 months of reviewed updates.
