Expert view
For people living alone, the question is not if someone may need to step in, but whether they will be able to. A nominated, controlled release answers that.
I nominated my niece and set the conditions myself. It is a quiet kind of reassurance I did not have before.

Common questions

Questions families ask.

What is Probate access?
A controlled, just-in-case release. You nominate who can reach what, and set the conditions that open access. Until those are met, nothing is released.
Can I change who I have nominated?
Yes, at any time. You stay in control of who can see what, and you can revoke access whenever you choose.
Is my information private until then?
Yes. Your record is encrypted and shared with no one until the conditions you set are met. Professional partners never see your stored content.
