limited 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.

Well program with all needed to prepare… Well program with all needed to prepare wishes.

We found Quicken’s Willmaker to be both… We found Quicken’s Willmaker to be both thorough and easy to work with. I was surprised at the depth of questions to prepare the will as well as following South Carolina’s legal requirements.

Very 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.
