Terms of Service

will.com provides legal information, not legal advice. We are not a law firm. No attorney-client relationship is formed by using this service. The documents generated by will.com are based on your answers to a questionnaire and general legal templates — not on professional legal judgment applied to your specific circumstances.

Estate planning involves decisions that can have significant legal and financial consequences. We strongly encourage you to have your completed will reviewed by a licensed attorney in your state before signing it, particularly if your situation involves a large estate, a blended family, business interests, or other complexity.

will.com is document preparation software. It asks you a series of questions and uses your answers to assemble a will document from state-specific legal templates. The software presents options and explains trade-offs; all decisions are yours. The service is free and requires no account.

will.com is currently available for residents of 49 states and the District of Columbia. Louisiana is not supported due to its substantially different laws governing estate planning.

By using will.com, you agree that:

• You are at least 18 years old and of sound mind.
• You are responsible for ensuring your will is properly executed — printed, signed in front of witnesses, and (where applicable) notarized — in accordance with the laws of your state. A generated PDF that is not correctly executed is not a valid will.
• You are responsible for the accuracy of the information you provide. will.com generates documents based on your inputs; incorrect inputs produce incorrect documents.
• You will store your executed will in a safe location and inform your executor of its whereabouts.
• You understand that laws change. You should review your will periodically and after major life events (marriage, divorce, birth of a child, significant change in assets).

will.com is provided “as is” without warranty of any kind. We make reasonable efforts to keep legal templates accurate and up to date, but we do not warrant that documents generated by will.com will be valid, enforceable, or sufficient for your particular situation in your particular state.

Legal requirements for wills vary by state and change over time. The generated document is a starting point, not a final legal instrument — until it is reviewed, signed, and witnessed according to your state’s requirements.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, will.com and its operators shall not be liable for any damages arising from your use of this service, including but not limited to: a will that is found to be invalid or unenforceable, disputes among beneficiaries, or reliance on information provided by this service without independent legal review.

The will document you generate is yours. will.com claims no ownership over the content of documents created using your personal information through this service.

The will.com software, design, and legal templates are owned by will.com and may not be copied or reproduced without permission.

We may update these terms from time to time. Material changes will be noted in our changelog and the date at the top of this page will be updated. Continued use of the service after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated terms.

These terms are governed by the laws of the United States and the state in which will.com is operated, without regard to conflict of law principles.
