[Jamie · Rating 4 out of 5]

The book itself had some lows (legal jargon involved), some highs (mostly helpful explanations of said jargon), but the included software was very easy-to-use and comes with all kinds of helpful extras.

And this is much cheaper than hiring a lawyer to ask you the same questions the software asks.

Get your will written, take the printout to a notary public, and have them witness your signature. That's it!
