Last Will & Testament.

A state-specific, attested will with everything you need to execute it. Not an adaptation of a generic template — a fresh document tuned to your state's statute.

What's in the document

Every clause, explained.

Revocation of prior wills

Standard language that any previous will or codicil you signed is revoked by this one.

Identification of family

Spouse, children, and in some cases parents — named so there's no ambiguity about who is intentionally or unintentionally omitted.

Executor (and alternate)

The person who carries out your wishes, with powers tuned to your state and a named alternate in case the first can't serve.

Guardian nominations

For minor children — primary and backup. A court still confirms, but your nomination carries significant weight.

Specific bequests

Named items or dollar amounts to particular people or charities. Survivorship rules included.

Residuary clause

What happens to everything else — divided by percentage among your chosen beneficiaries, or to a single residuary taker.

Digital asset authorization (RUFADAA)

Explicit consent giving your executor legal access to your email, cloud storage, financial logins, and crypto accounts. Without this clause, platforms can refuse access — even with letters testamentary.

Pet provisions

Name a caretaker for any companion animals plus a discretionary care amount. For deeper pet planning — a statutory pet trust with funded care over a pet's lifetime — see the dedicated pet-trust product.

Witness attestation

The statutory attestation block your two adult, disinterested witnesses sign.

Self-proving affidavit

Where your state allows — CA, NY, TX — a notarized affidavit that makes probate much smoother.

State coverage

Three states, deeply.

Each state's template is a separate document, reviewed by a licensed attorney in that state. Statutory references:

  • California
    Probate Code §6110
  • New York
    EPTL §3-2.1
  • Texas
    Estates Code §251
