How to get help
Confirm that the household profile matches, complete all applicable sections, cross out unused blanks rather than leaving them open, and sign the will only with two qualified witnesses and a notary together. Staple the original, keep it in a safe place, and tell the selected executor where it is.
Who this service helps
Use is limited to a person who is not currently married and has no children or grandchildren. A married person or anyone with children or grandchildren must use a different form set or obtain advice appropriate to the estate plan.
