 TITLE: How Do Online Wills Work? CONTENT: Is an Online Will a Good Idea?\n------------------------------\nThere are benefits to creating an online will. For starters, it ensures that you have a will in place should you pass. Thanks to their ease of use, online will services have helped streamline the process and dial down some of the intimidation. Moreover, some folks may prefer to do it from the comfort of home without having to make multiple visits to an attorney. Doing it online can also get the job done faster than going with a traditional lawyer, and the cost is often considerably cheaper. (More on this in a moment.)\nOnline wills aren't for everybody, however. While useful for those with fairly basic estate planning needs, they may prove insufficient if your situation is more complex or you have a large estate. Those who've been divorced, have stepchildren or own multiple properties may need the guidance of a skilled estate planning attorney when mapping out their will. The same goes for business owners who plan on including assets related to their company in their will. END
