Create Your Free Last Will and Testament

At SimplyTrust, we believe every American family deserves access to basic estate planning documents, regardless of their financial situation. A last will, healthcare directive, or power of attorney should not be luxuries reserved for those who can afford expensive legal fees. These free tools exist because protecting your loved ones should never be a barrier. While we do hope you will consider using our trust service to create and manage a revocable living trust, we are simply happy you are taking the time to protect the ones you love.

No. SimplyTrust is not a law firm. This is a self-directed tool that records your choices—we do not review your entries or determine whether this document is appropriate for your situation. If you have questions, consult a licensed attorney in your state.

Your downloaded document is not legally effective until you complete your state's execution requirements, which typically include signing, witnesses, and in some states, notarization. Requirements vary—consult your state's bar association or a licensed attorney for guidance.

Our form is available for all 50 states and includes signature, witness, and notarization fields based on your state selection. You are responsible for confirming and completing your state's execution requirements. SimplyTrust does not guarantee legal validity in any jurisdiction.

A will expresses your choices about asset distribution and goes through probate—a public court process. A trust holds assets during your lifetime and transfers them privately, typically without probate. Which is appropriate depends on your circumstances. SimplyTrust offers both free will generation and subscription-based trust services.
