How to Create My Own Will?

Question

Is there a way that I can do this without having to obtain assistance from legal people? If there's a certain format and notarization, that's fine. I just want to make my will soon. If you're a single parent, my opinion is that it's never too early to prepare for things like that.

Answer 1

If you have enough assets to justify making a will you have enough to justify paying for good advice & to have it done right.  See a lawyer.    

Answer 2

Office Supply stores sell the forms. You can also find them online. It needs to be notarized and witnessed when you sign it.

Notarize, witness according to state standards; and make sure to check the local probate office to make sure it's ok.
