Does NOT include Springing Durable Power of Attorney Bought it for personal (family) estate planning purposes. Price was good. Interview process is easy like tax software. The Will and Health Care Directive worked fine. The Durable Power of Attorney only has a version that takes effect immediately. It does NOT provide for a Springing DPOA. Their reason is that it takes too long to determine incapacity, and the POA must have the ability to buy and sell immediately. Lots of on line articles support this position. However, that is not the right solution for me. Adding the Springing DPOA should be simple enough. Not including it is equivalent to giving legal advice to me.

The 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.

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.
