Is it necessary to have an attorney to do last will and testament?

Answered by attorney Victor L. Waid (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Law Office of Victor Waid
A person can act on their own behalf and prepare their own will, but it is not advisable because, if not prepare correctly, then there intentions will not be carried out, because the will was defective. I recently probated a case that had just that problem; form will obtained from stationary store not prepared correctly. I am a believer, you get what you pay for in life; pay nothing get nothing. But it is your right to represent yourself.
