About Wills.ng

We believe that putting your affairs in order should be a calm, reflective process, not a daunting legal hurdle.

Many people in Nigeria put off making a will. Talking about death can feel uncomfortable or unwelcome, the process can seem complicated, and the cost can feel out of reach. We built Wills.ng to make it easier to begin. Our mission is to provide a trustworthy, modern platform that helps people protect their loved ones and preserve their legacy.

What Wills.ng is

Wills.ng is an online service for preparing your will. You answer plain-English questions at your own pace, organise what you own and who you want to look after, and get your will ready for a qualified lawyer to review. You then sign it on paper, with witnesses. Our guides explain the steps along the way.

What Wills.ng isn't

Wills.ng is not a law firm and does not give legal advice. Using Wills.ng does not make us your lawyers. The legal review of a will is carried out by an independent Nigerian law firm, under its own professional responsibility.

Our lawyers

Lawyers at independent law firms in the Wills.ng Approved Partner Network review wills prepared on Wills.ng. We check each firm and each lawyer's professional standing before they review wills. See what the lawyer review covers.

Wills.ng Professional

Wills.ng Professional is the part of Wills.ng that law firms use. Our partner firms review customers' wills in it, and we are building it into software for will drafting, estate planning and probate work for law firms in Nigeria.

Fideby

Wills.ng is built by Fideby. You may see it described as “Wills.ng by Fideby”.
