Get your affairs in order
A simple, no-bullshit walkthrough of what every adult needs: a will, healthcare directive, financial power of attorney, beneficiary review, and an asset inventory. We point you at the official free state forms — we don't replace an attorney for complex estates.
This isn't legal advice. The official statutory forms we reference are pre-drafted by your state legislature and free to use. For complex estates (large net worth, business ownership, blended families, special-needs beneficiaries, multi-state property), an estate-planning attorney is worth the money. Free / sliding-scale legal help for seniors and low-income folks is real and worth a phone call (resources at the bottom of this page).
📍 Your locale
Estate-planning rules are state-specific. We tailor the checklist + form references to where you live.
Today: California (US), Ontario / BC / Quebec / Alberta (Canada), Philippines (national framework), England&Wales / Scotland / Northern Ireland (UK), NSW / VIC / QLD / WA / SA + others (Australia), India (national + Bombay/Calcutta/Madras HC + Goa + NRI), Mexico (federal + CDMX / state-level + cross-border US-MX), Brazil (federal + state-level + cross-border), Netherlands (Burgerlijk Wetboek + provinces + EU Succession + cross-border), Indonesia (BW + Faraid + adat + Jakarta / Bali / Sumbar / Sumut / Sulsel + cross-border), Germany (BGB Buch 5 + Bundesländer + EU Succession + cross-border DACH + Turkish-German diaspora). Each locale gets country-appropriate official forms + free legal resources.
✅ Your checklist
Save your progress as you go. Everything stays private to your account.
Have a specific question?
Prime knows the rules. Ask things like "what does California require for witnessing a will?" or "do I need a trust if my estate is around $400K?" or "what's the difference between a healthcare directive and a living will?" — Prime answers from the same source these checklists draw from, with disclaimers and links.
