Wills & Estates
LegalZoom
Most Americans don't have a will, but the terrorist attacks have prompted more people to consider drawing one. The Internet offers several low-cost, do-it-yourself sites.
This one provides a standard last will and testament for $55. To get started, fill out a form that includes your personal information, your heirs, an executor and any instructions for funeral arrangements. You can also make a bequest of sentimental items to specific people.
Once you complete the form and pay the fee, the site mails you the will on acid-free bond paper. Each will is reviewed by a legally trained staff member to make sure it complies with the law. The will becomes official when you and three witnesses sign the document. www.legalzoom.com
