Quicken WillMaker & Trust 2024 - Estate Planning Software - Includes Will, Living Trust, Health Care Directive, Financial, Power of Attorney - Legally Binding - [CD, PC/Mac Download, Online]

Had our wills originally done by a lawyer about 20 years ago. Used this program and compared the verbage and this program pretty much included all the previous stuff but added stuff for our internet society. Very much impressed how thorough the program is.

I would imagine that the cost of this software (over a hundred bucks) scares off a lot of people, but when you consider how much it costs to hire an attorney to prepare a new Will, Transfer on Death Deed, Health Care Directive, and Durable Power of Attorney (all essential estate documents), this software is a veritable bargain. For example, I contacted a local attorney to get quotes on preparing the aforementioned documents, and the quote was well over $2,000. Instead, I purchased this software and created my own essential estate documents in just a few hours and at no cost, other than the cost of the software itself. It's comforting to know that the software generates documents that meet all of the requirements of the particular state you live in, so the documents I created are legally correct and should be accepted by all city, county and state entities upon my death. I was impressed with the ease of creating these all-important documents and have already had the Transfer on Death Deed (which exempts my home from going through the dreaded probate court) recorded by the County Clerk, who examined and readily accepted it. The other legal documents did not have to be recorded or otherwise furnished to a government entity at this time, but I'm confident that they will withstand any legal scrutiny after my death. This ranks as one of the most cost-saving purchases I have ever made. I am highly impressed with this product and enthusiastically recommend it as a "no-brainer alternative" to the ridiculous fees charged by attorneys these days.

Really NOT sure why. Anyways, the license key in the delivered CDROM based package was rejected when I tried to register online..I called the phone number shown on the reject page. That TS support suggested I filled out a form onn their website for support. This I did. I also sent a follow up email on the reject.This was on a Saturday. Early Monday morning I received an email reply giving me a link to download the software. This worked OK and the software is up and running now. Good support but only during Monday to Friday.

What a scam!

This software is very easy to use. Walks you through the process step by step. Plus an array of tools. Really Like It!

What I like about this program is it walks you through the process of making a will and how you wish your property to be divided and who will take control of your house,cars,in my case my farm equipment.

I was a bit uneasy before doing this, I was pleasantly surprised to find it was so easy!If you’ve ever used Turbo Tax you’ll notice the process is very much like that. It’s super simple, doesn’t take very long and It’s legal after getting it motorized. Saves hundreds of dollars. we were quoted $1,500. with an attorney. Will Maker is the way to go.

After reading all the enthusiastic reviews, we had high hopes that we could use this software to create our new will. Once we started working through the program, we had so many questions, we decided to hire an attorney after all.
