Using the Estate Plan Questionnaire to Create Your Documents

Create Your Estate Plan Documents with the Questionnaire

Creating your Will or Trust documents is a straightforward process that begins with a series of questions. These questions are designed to collect the necessary information to compile state-specific documentation for your Estate Plan. 

  1. Creating an Account: Creating your documents starts with providing your basic details. This initiates the questionnaire to gather the necessary data for your Estate Plan documents.
  2. Purchasing an Estate Plan: After entering your basic information, you'll be prompted to purchase an Estate Plan suitable for your needs. You will not be able to complete your documents without purchasing a plan.
  3. Completing the Questionnaire: Continue answering the questions to provide the information to generate your final documents. Once completed, you have the option to download your documents or request shipment.
  4. Finalizing Documents: Sign and notarize your documents as required by law, then let your family or designated individuals know where to find your documents.
