Do not write your own will. If it is important to you, have an experienced attorney draft it per your specification and they will provide witnesses and a notary. People who create their own will using online forms are at risk for not complying with state law and other finer points that may become important. Please do not be pennywise and pound foolish. It is a very important endeavor. A simple will with an attorney should not cost more than 1,000. and may be as low as several hundred dollars depending on where you go. I would advise you to research lawyers on Avvo.com. Good luck.
