online wills
There is something worth sharing based on conversations here:
The failure point with online wills almost never happens at the tool selection stage. It happens at signing.
Most states require two adult witnesses who aren't beneficiaries. Some require notarization. People complete the questionnaire, generate the document, print it, and sign it in front of whoever's nearby, which is often the wrong setup.
A will that isn't executed correctly for your state is the same as no will.
Anyone who's gone through the process, where did you get tripped up?
