Why a DIY Will Is Never the Right Estate Planning Option

Why a DIY Will Is Never the Right Estate Planning Option

There are a lot of things that can be fun to do yourself. In fact, many home projects can save you a ton of money if you learn to take care of them on your own without the help of a paid professional. However, when it comes to your estate planning, you don’t want to take any chances. Here are three reasons:

• Mistakes – Even if you go to a legal website that offers a form will and legal support, there are still mistakes that can easily be made. Whether it is something that is omitted that should have been in your will or perhaps wording that is not valid in California (since legal matters vary from state to state), you just want to be sure that your planning is valid.
• Dispute resolution – Don’t let your life’s work end up tied up in probate court for months or even years before your beneficiaries are left with what hasn’t been spent on court fees. The wording is key when it comes to estate planning. You want to be sure that things are ironclad, so no one can challenge your decisions.
• Confidence – Hiring an attorney can give you peace of mind because you won’t have to worry if your DIY will is good enough to get your wishes carried out.
