Starting Your Will

How to create a FreeWill account

FreeWill provides a simple, intuitive, and efficient way of creating wills. Start by answering simple questions about you and your wishes. At the end of those questions, you will receive a PDF document to download and print.

To create your FreeWill account:

1. First, go to the FreeWill website and select the Get Started button in the upper right-hand corner of the screen. 
2. You will then be guided through easy-to-follow steps that will assist you through the creation of your will.

How to finalize your documents

Once you're finished, you can print out your finalized document, which will include easy-to-follow, state-specific instructions.
