Has anyone used this? I'm looking for the quickest way (of reasonable cost) to make the most basic of wills and living wills. What do you recommend?

I know a radio personality who does endorsements for them. I know Bill Handel out of KFI in LA also recommends them and has for some time. I know that doesn't mean they are totally legit but after this long I think his station would have pulled the endorsement if they were questionable.

I know my DH was looking at them last night for his LLP and I saw they were part of the BBBonline Realibility Program.

I did some research on them when I was considering using them to have my last name legally changed. They're registered with the BBB and seem legit.

most stationary stores carry the basic forms for less than a couple of dollar a peice. suzi ormon (financial person) used to have them available on her website as a free downloadable print (she may still have).

don't know the laws for your state, but when we helped a friend do these (he was going to do a stretch in state prison and wanted to get all his ducks in a row)-we found that in california you just get the basic forms and have them notarized (did it at a ups hub for maybe $15). we bought a maybe $15 book that gave all the specifics on both and some good pointers on what information to make sure to include in the wording (he had some wacko relatives he knew would fight tooth and nail over some antiques he wanted to go to friends-so we drafted a "gifting letter" that said he had gifted these items to friends already, but they would stay in his possession until the time of his death-therefore not needing to list them in the actual will).

as far as wills go-is it possible to have both a basic and a living will? i thought you could only have one will to detail your bequests. now if you're talking about an advance medical directive, most doctor's offices have those on hand and give them out free to patients.

We used them for our wills, came out very well, Atty friend looked at them and liked them very much.
