My parents have changed their will so that only my sister and I inherit. I am married with children but have children to a former marriage who I do not wish to inherit nor do my parents as they are more than adequately taken care of already. My parents want me to spend around 0 to make a will with their solicitor but I don’t have that sort of money. Will one of those do it yourself kits be ok? Has anyone had any dealings with these?
Are you thinking about selling your home yourself? then
Yes, they are legal. You just have to make sure you are following the laws for your state. Some states ask for more witnesses, some ask for a notary’s signature, etc. You need to do that research. You can go to google and type in <your state> will laws. You should get the necessary information there.
