GBQuicken Willmaker is an excellent package. Quicken Willmaker is an excellent package. It generates all the documents necessary. It also provides an explanation for each line item in a document. It also shows a sample of each document that you wish to prepare. Customer support is prompt and good. You can complete the documents online or you can download the software into your desktop/laptop. Highly recommend.

GBThe software is easy to download and… The software is easy to download and install. As you go through the different documents, it gives you a lot of information about that area so you can think about your choices and put in the answer that is best for your situation. The only thing that I did not like was on the Durable POA for finances, it did not print out the page for the notary to fill out. Instead, the notary needed to provide an acknowledgement page which made it a little more challenging when it came to signing. The notary acknowledgement was on the other forms such as the will as an affidavit page so not sure why they could not have just placed it here as well.

GBVery well done Very well done. One thing we wished was more clear was the transfer of deed portion of the trust. Quitclaim forms are not consistent online. Nolo provided some states on their site but not ours. They should all be available. Also, some sections included the area for the Notary to sign, some said to include it. Didn’t know how to find it, but our Notary was experienced and was able to provide it for us. Not sure the Notary at the UPS Store would have been as knowledgeable.

GBEasy to use Easy to use, seems to cover all the bases we need for our estate planning. The only issue I found is both husband and wife are listed a female on the preview, there wasn't an option to select the gender, and no option to make changes. When I go to the last step (to print) the gender of the names on the estate aren't listed, which makes it ok in the end. I just spent needless time trying to correct the wrong gender.

GBlimited to simple will and trust This software is excellent except it is only useful for very simple wills and trust. For instance, I wanted to name a beneficiary in my trust and want to name an alternative if that person died before me...name my brother, then if he dies, his kids get his portion of my estate. WillMaker doesn't allow this. It only goes to the first level and doesn't allow you to go to the second. So, I wasted my money. Will Maker does allow for an alternative beneficiary but doesn't allow me to list who gets my assets if that person isn't alive. As an example, my spouse is my beneficiary, when both of us die my niece gets our estate but if she is gone, Will Maker doesn't allow you to list my niece's children as her alternative.
