Want to make a last will and testament quickly?

Well, most people who want and need to put their estate legal affairs in order need to see an estate planning attorney. Estate planning is complicated and most people have at least one unique circumstance that requires assistance from an estate planning attorney.

But it's possible, if you live in or in another state that permits olographic wills, to make a will in just a few short minutes.

Now I hope that people with unique family circumstances, or people with significant assets at stake, all realize they must see an estate planning attorney to put their own estate legal program in order.

But there is a group of folks out there who, either because they are cheap, broke, a do-it-yourselfer, or for some other reason, refuse to go to an attorney to get their legal affairs in order.

Virtually all lawyers say that you should never sign any estate planning document without going through a law firm. I think one of the reasons lawyers say that is because it is self-serving. Now, I do acknowledge that some of the "create your own will" websites and software out there is 100% junk, and you shouldn't touch it with a ten foot pole, much less your ink pen.

But for a simple scenario, where you can get excellent written and video instruction, there may be a circumstance out there where someone who refuses to see a lawyer to get legal affairs in order, can be instructed to put a simple, effective, estate legal plan in place. What are your thoughts?
