What it is
Will.com is a web-based estate planning service that creates state-tailored legal documents from questionnaire answers. It can generate wills, living trusts, durable powers of attorney, and healthcare directives, with the maker estimating about 20 minutes for the questionnaire and document generation. The free plan costs nothing, requires no account, creates four state-specific documents in the browser, and provides PDF downloads. Answers and generated documents remain on the user’s device on that tier. The paid plan costs $29 a year, billed $29/year, and adds encrypted online storage, editing, annual review reminders, and documents such as HIPAA authorizations, conservator nominations, business succession declarations, special-needs trust provisions, and disposition-of-remains authorizations. Paid data is encrypted in the browser before transmission. Generation is paused in eight listed states but works in other states and D.C. PDFs include witness and notary instructions.
