Happy Planners

We have been putting this off FOREVER. The process was very fast and easy yet thorough. Even though this is an online will we were surprised at how detailed it was. They cover everything from pets, burial requests, and even additional requests like playing music at your ceremony!

This is a fantastic product. It is very user-friendly and gets the job done. We have been putting off doing a will (not something most people are looking forward to doing) and the Fastwill process was painless and informative. We especially loved being able to have our documents notarized without leaving out home.

FastWill made setting up my will efficient and easy-without lawyer-speak or overcomplicating the process. I felt guided through the each step of creating my will, and I was able to understand every term as a layman. I'll sleep better at night knowing I have a will in place! Highly recommended!

General

: A Will is a legal document that outlines how your assets should be distributed after your death and goes through probate court. A Trust is a legal arrangement that allows you to manage and distribute assets privately, avoiding probate and providing more control over your estate.
: With FastWill, you can complete your Will in about 15-30 minutes. A Trust typically takes 30-45 minutes. The process is simple, guided, and you can save your progress and return anytime.
: Yes, both Wills and Trusts need to be notarized to be legally valid. FastWill offers remote notarization services, so you can complete everything from home without visiting a notary office.
: You should update your Will or Trust after major life events like marriage, divorce, having children, buying property, or significant changes in your financial situation. FastWill provides 30 days of free updates, or you can purchase a Lifetime Membership for ongoing flexibility.

Wills

: No, you don't need an attorney to update your Will with FastWill. FastWill offers unlimited edits to your plan, so you can easily make updates as your life changes. Just be sure to have your documents notarized whenever you make changes to keep them legally valid. While it's not required, some people choose to consult an attorney to review their plan and ensure everything is set up properly.
: No, you can't write a Will for someone else, but you can help them! A Will must be created by the person it applies to, since it reflects their own wishes. If you get stuck or have questions, FastWill's live support team is always here to help.
: If you die without a Will, your state's intestacy laws determine how your assets are distributed. This may not align with your wishes, and the process can be lengthy and costly for your loved ones.
: No, a Will does not avoid probate. It goes through the probate court process, which can be public and time-consuming. A Trust, on the other hand, can help you avoid probate and keep your estate matters private.
: Yes, online Wills and Trusts created through FastWill are legally valid when properly executed and notarized. Our documents comply with state-specific requirements and are created using attorney-reviewed templates.

Trusts

: To fund your Trust, you transfer ownership of your assets into the Trust's name. This includes real estate (through a deed transfer), bank accounts, investments, and personal property. FastWill offers deed transfer services to help you properly fund your Trust.
: A Revocable Trust can be modified or revoked at any time during your lifetime, giving you flexibility and control. An Irrevocable Trust cannot be easily changed once created and is typically used for tax planning or asset protection purposes.
: It depends on your situation. Many couples create a joint Trust that holds assets for both spouses. However, separate Trusts may be beneficial if you have different beneficiaries, want individual control, or have complex estate planning needs. FastWill can help you determine the best approach for your situation.
