You could do it yourself but I wouldn't recommend a Will since your heirs will pay a LOT from probate. Go get a living trust and move your stuff there. BECAREFUL about moving your house into a living trust, gifting to someone, etc. etc. find pros and cons about that as house prices determine which path you should go...

Default Wills are hogwash !!!!!

I was left a pecuniary bequest in a friends Will. The 'kids' were left the rest and residue, no one else in the Will. They sold the only real estate,
signed all the necessary papers and guess what, I got nothing.
Almost sounds like this couldn't happen well, it did. I have a lawyer
working on it. The moral of the story is, don't trust anyone when it comes to money !!!!!
