Question about making a WILL...Attorney Vs. Do it yourself web site...
Advertisements [?]
(Any opinions or experiecne with online vs attorney created wills?)

So, this site says I need an attorney to make a will,

" Only an attorney can legally draft a will for a person, unless a person drafts his own will. Personally drafted wills are often incomplete, and therefore invalid under state law. An invalid will is worthless.

Kits for writing a will are normally not state-specific. If your will fails to follow state law, it will be invalid. "

++++++++++++

Whereas, this site says I can do it myself for $20.00 and will be valid in my state (NC)

"What you get:

A Custom Will- The result of hundreds of possible combinations. This creates a Will perfectly matched to your own personal situation.

A Will that, upon being properly signed and witnessed, is valid and legally binding in any American state except Louisiana"
