Online will services worth using?

Donatello. · 02-20-2023, 07:50 PM

Looking for more cost effective options for my lady and I to create our wills without spending a fortune with a lawyer.

Any good options out there?

I saw TurboTax now has a Will Builder.

You can always amend your will so in the meantime the TurboTax Will Builder can carry you over. Does that seem valid ?

I don't have any will yet so that won't work

Sorry I wasn't clear. I know you don't have a will so use the Turbotax Will Builder. That way you at least are covered (quickly)

Then in the future change your will if you must.

I'm not going to ask questions but if your not married and want your g.f to be the beneficiary and executor do the Turbotax in the near future.

Just an opinion cause I'm not an accountant or lawyer.

If you don't really need one (no dependents) but want to decide which charity or remote relative will get your stuff if you kick, then fine to do online or turbotax. But if you have any sense that it will actually matter, get a lawyer to do it. Doesn't cost much, and they will ensure it is properly filed (and helps validate it as legit).
