Do not just pick the cheapest option on Google. Ask a few questions first. Was the platform built with input from Australian legal practitioners? Is there an affiliated law firm behind it? Does it give clear instructions for signing and witnessing, so your Will is validly executed? Remember, an online Will that is never printed and signed is not a valid Will. Willed’s online Will service is built with a practising lawyer and backed by Willed Law, a member of the Law Institute of Victoria.
