August was Make-A-Will month, but if you missed the reminder, it’s not too late. FreeWill is an online service that helps people write or update a legal will for free.
FreeWill is able to provide their service through the support of hundreds of nonprofit organizations. Simply visit the website, fill out the online questionnaire in about 20 minutes, and print your documents.
Once documents are printed, follow the directions to sign them and make them official. FreeWill also offers the opportunity for users to designate donations to nonprofit organizations as a part of their estate plan. In addition, there are articles about types of wills, planning documents, and you can update or edit your will at any time in the future.
FreeWill can also determine if your situation is too complex for their format, and the system will direct you to an attorney an provide a summary of your situation to print and share with a professional.
