Some people suggest that instead of doing everything on your own, it would be a good idea to use an online service for estate planning. With those services, you can get some basic questions and answers to consider and they are cheaper than attorneys. The problem is that it still does not give you the personal attention estate planning requires.
In the end, you might lack the knowledge to answer any questions in the best way for your estate.
An estate planning attorney can answer your questions and advise you on creating an estate plan that meets your unique circumstances.
