FreeWill
It takes less than 20 minutes to write or update your legal will, for free. Use an advance healthcare directive, or living will, to specify your healthcare wishes and appoint someone to make decisions on your behalf if you’re unable. Keep your financial accounts accessible and bills paid by appointing someone to make financial decisions on your behalf if you’re unable to. Document and distribute assets that your last will and testament does not cover, including 401(k)s, IRAs, and life insurance policies. Create a revocable living trust and fulfill many functions of a last will and testament. Also, placing assets in a trust can avoid California’s lengthy probate process. Writing your own will can feel daunting, that’s why we worked with the nation's top legal experts to create our interactive online will maker. Enter your information and create a last will and testament customized to your wishes.
