Sign and notarize
We tell you exactly how to sign each document for your state: witnesses, notarization, everything.
The documents on will.com are free.
E-will in 10 states and D.C.
Arizona, Colorado, Florida, Idaho, Maryland, Nevada, Utah, and Washington allow electronic wills and remote witnesses. No printer, no paper, no in-person meetings.
Indiana, North Dakota, and D.C. same as above, but your witnesses must be physically present when you sign.
These laws are changing rapidly. More states adopt them each year.
State-specific signing instructions
Every state has different rules for witnesses, notarization, and signing. Will.com tells you exactly what your state requires.
Most states require 2 witnesses and recommend notarization. Any bank, UPS Store, or local notary can help.
Four documents. One questionnaire. All free.
Most people need all four. Each one protects you and your family in a different way.
Last Will & Testament
Names who inherits your assets, appoints an executor, and designates guardians for minor children.
Living Trust
Avoids probate, keeps your estate private, and lets you set conditions on inheritance. Includes a pour-over will.
Healthcare Directive
Documents your medical wishes and names someone to make healthcare decisions if you can't.
Durable Power of Attorney
Authorizes someone to manage your finances if you can't: pay bills, handle accounts, and make financial decisions.
