About LegalPath

Built by Canadians,
for Canadians.

LegalPath is an Edmonton-based, family-run Canadian legal-tech company. We build self-serve legal forms around the actual provincial and federal Acts that apply to each document, with a plain-English AI assistant that walks you through every question. The goal is simple: help everyday Canadians handle paperwork they can do themselves, without paying $400 an hour to a lawyer who would tell them the same thing.

Why we built this

The math wasn't adding up.

A simple Canadian will costs $400 to $1,200 at a lawyer's office. A separation agreement runs $2,000 to $5,000. Federal incorporation can hit $1,800 once the lawyer is finished. None of these require a lawyer by law. They require someone who knows what questions to ask and what clauses to include.

The big American players (LegalZoom, RocketLawyer) charge nearly as much as Canadian lawyers and reference US law that does not apply here. The small Canadian players (Willful, Epilogue) focus on wills only. There was no Canadian self-serve platform that covered the full life-event spectrum at a price normal families could afford.

So we built one. Every form is built around current Canadian legislation, province by province. Every wizard walks you through the questions in language a real person can understand. Every PDF prints signed-ready with filing instructions for the exact court or registry that applies to your province.

Where we are

Made in Edmonton.

LegalPath is a small Canadian legal-tech company based in Edmonton, Alberta. We are a family-run joint venture: small team, real humans, Canadian time zones. Email lands with a person who can actually fix whatever needs fixing.

We are not a law firm and never will be. We are a template company that builds the paperwork most Canadians can prepare themselves, the way the provincial Acts intend, at prices regular families can afford. The product carries the brand; we keep our heads down and focus on shipping good forms.

What we believe

Five rules we will not break.

Honest, not aspirational.

We tell you what we cover and what we do not. We tell you what is live in your province and what is coming. If a form is not ready for you, we say so. We do not promise paralegal review we have not built.

Plain English, every word.

A legal document should not require a translator. Every wizard question is written so a person who has never read a statute can answer it. The AI assistant explains terms in the same plain English. No Latin, no jargon, no condescension.

Provincial accuracy is non-negotiable.

Every form is built around the actual Acts that apply in your province. Alberta forms cite the Wills and Succession Act. Ontario forms cite the Succession Law Reform Act. Quebec forms reference the Civil Code. We do not ship a generic Canadian template and hope it works everywhere.

Refund-first, hassle-last.

Fair refund terms before documents are finalized or downloaded, plus a quality guarantee if a court or registry rejects a form because of a defect on our side. See our refund policy for the details.

Your data stays in Canada.

Every customer record, every form draft, every generated PDF lives on Canadian servers (Supabase ca-central-1 in Montreal). PIPEDA federal, Law 25 Quebec. We will never send your data outside Canada without your explicit consent.

What we are not

LegalPath is not a law firm.

We provide self-help legal forms and plain-English information, not legal advice. We do not represent clients. We do not file documents on your behalf. We do not review your specific situation and tell you what to do.

For contested matters (custody disputes, large estates, contested divorces) we recommend you consult a licensed lawyer in your province. For straightforward paperwork, LegalPath gives you a faster, cheaper, self-serve path. The full disclaimer is on our disclaimer page.
