Written by the company
Octopus Legacy, formerly known as Guardian Angel, is the place to plan for death and find support after a loss. When people think about planning for death they think about wills, life insurance and funerals. We take these cold processes and turn them into something much more human. Share more than money: leave voice notes, music, recipes and videos. Shape a legacy that connects you while you're here. And after you're gone. Founded by Sam after his mum died suddenly, we’re a group of people who work in death because we’ve been affected by it. We know the difference a good plan makes, and what it’s like when there isn’t one. Death can come between us, leave mess, legal fees, frustration. But it can also connect us. We see a world where people talk openly about death, and work out the real meaning of legacy, one that connects to them. We’re here to make that world happen.

It was an absolute pleasure meeting…
It was an absolute pleasure meeting Grace. Grace came to my home as i very poor mobility due to rheumatoid arthritis.
Grace was unbelievable. Kind, caring and extremely knowledgeable.
Making sure we understood each stage of the process.
Making a will is not easy, it reminds you of your own mortality which i found upsetting. Grace understood how emotionally challenging it can be, her ability to understand this was unbelievably comforting.
Grace has a fabulous personality and was so easy to talk to.
I have emailed her several times since her visit with plenty of questions and she has responded immediately her reassurance made me feel safe in the knowledge Grace would always be there for us.
She is extremely knowledgeable about legacy planning and an absolute credit to Octopus Legacy.
I really can't speak more highly of Grace and we were so delighted to have had such a positive experience.
It is very clear Grace wants to do the very best for her clients and i have found her communication skills absolutely outstanding.
I would like to wish all the very best, i will never forget how wonderful she made me feel. Legacy planning is not easy, but Grace's delightful manner made it feel easy and straightforward.
Thank you so much for everything Grace.

Patient, Clear and Reassuring Advice ⭐
We had a really positive experience with Octopus Legacy. We initially contacted them to discuss a simple will, and throughout the whole process they were incredibly patient, professional, and understanding.
They took the time to explain everything clearly, including all the legal terminology, without ever making us feel rushed. They carefully listened to our circumstances, answered all of our questions, and guided us through the different options available so we could make an informed decision. We also appreciated that there was absolutely no pressure, they encouraged us to take our time and think about what was right for us.
As Filipinos, estate planning isn’t something that’s commonly discussed in our culture, and they were very respectful and understanding of that. They made what could have been an overwhelming conversation feel comfortable and reassuring.
I would highly recommend Octopus Legacy to anyone looking for friendly, knowledgeable, and patient guidance with estate planning.

Seamless service and complete peace of mind.
We recently had a home visit with Maggie to arrange our estate planning, and we couldn't be happier with the service. What we expected to be a complex or daunting process was made effortlessly clear. Maggie was professional, warm, and wonderfully concise in answering our questions, helping us confidently select the package that best fitted our needs.
Having the right legacy support mapped out for both ourselves and our families brings immense peace of mind. We highly recommend.
