The legal bridge —
between a smart contract and your heirs' local probate court.
Trust declaration drafts, jurisdiction-specific templates, and optional attestations where available. Your inheritance intent is easier to review off-chain, not treated as legal advice.
A smart-contract vault moves assets according to code. A probate judge doesn't read Solidity. The legal kit translates between the two — documenting your intent in a format your lawyer, notary, or local court can review.
Five jurisdictions are covered out of the box. Generated PDFs are informational drafts; keep signed and notarized copies yourself, and record a hash or attestation separately where that workflow is available.
Key features
Jurisdiction-specific templates
US (state-agnostic), EU (forced-heirship aware), UAE (DIFC), Singapore (MAS), and UK. Drafts are designed for review by local counsel.
Optional attestation path
Where available, record a signed statement or document hash as supporting evidence. The generated PDF itself is not automatically pinned or versioned on-chain.
Regenerated on changes
Add or remove an heir, adjust shares — the kit can produce a fresh declaration. Preserve prior signed copies in your own records.
Works with your lawyer
Templates are drafts, not finals. Export as DOCX/PDF for your attorney to review, customize, and notarize where required by local law.
The flow
- 01
Pick your jurisdiction
Choose your heirs' location. Multi-jurisdictional estates can stack declarations (one per heir country).
- 02
Configure
The kit pulls heir addresses and shares from your vault, inserts them into the template with plain-language intent.
- 03
Review evidence
Sign, notarize, or separately record a document hash where available. Keep the executed document in your own estate records.
- 04
Notarize where needed
Export DOCX/PDF, take to your local notary. Civil-law countries require notarization; common-law often doesn't.
- 05
Update when needed
Heir change, share change, jurisdiction change — generate a new declaration and preserve both old and new signed copies.
Questions
Frequently asked
Do I still need a lawyer?
Our kit is not a substitute for a licensed attorney. Treat generated documents as attorney-review drafts, especially for multi-jurisdictional estates, family offices, forced-heirship countries, or estates with meaningful tax exposure.
Which jurisdictions are covered?
Templates today cover the US (all 50 states via state-agnostic language), EU (EU-wide forced-heirship acknowledgment), UAE (DIFC trust framework), Singapore (MAS-aligned declaration), and the UK. Additional jurisdictions on request.
What is an on-chain attestation?
A cryptographically signed owner statement or document hash can help evidence intent when an attestation flow is available. The current document endpoints generate PDFs on demand; users should keep their own signed, notarized, and exported copies.
Does the kit handle forced heirship in civil-law countries?
The EU template includes forced-heirship awareness and prompts, but compliance still requires local counsel or a notary. HeirVault does not decide whether an opt-out or reserved-share override is valid in your jurisdiction.
Can I update the declaration later?
Yes. The kit can generate a fresh declaration after heirs or shares change. HeirVault does not guarantee historical version storage unless you separately record and preserve a signed copy or attestation.
