Should you write your own will or trust? Before you start, you may want to consider some of the dangers of DIY Wills and Trusts. If you’ve been traveling around the sun for a while, you’ve no doubt heard of a Will. A will is a document that says what happens to your money and belongings after you die. You may even have a Will. Or, you know you should get one. And maybe you’ve heard of a Trust and wondered what it is and how it works. You may have even done research on Google about how to do your own Will or Trust.In fact, it’s hard to poke around the internet and not find do-it-yourself (“DIY”) Wills and Trusts services. Legal Zoom, TrustandWill.com, and even media personalities Dave Ramsey and Suze Orman offer cheap DIY documents. Heck, you can even create your own Will or Trust for free by downloading a few forms. What these websites won’t do, however, is explain the potential consequences that can happen if you use one of their services.
