Online Will Maker for Modern Families

A will is the foundation of any estate plan. VoiceWill is a voice-guided estate document assistant that helps you prepare an attorney-ready draft of your last will and testament by talking through your wishes — beneficiaries, guardians for minor children, executors, and personal items — instead of filling out long forms.

Why most families put off writing a will

Surveys consistently show that more than half of American adults do not have a will. The barriers are familiar: paperwork feels cold and legalistic, attorneys can be expensive for a first-time plan, and online form-based services can feel impersonal. The result is that the people who would most benefit from a clear will — parents of young children, blended families, caregivers, and small-business owners — often delay the conversation for years. VoiceWill is built around a simple idea: the easiest way to express your wishes is to say them out loud, the way you would in a real conversation.

How VoiceWill's online will maker works

You start by signing in and picking your state of residence. Your guide, Vera, walks you through a structured interview: identity and family, who should serve as your executor, who inherits specific assets, who should care for minor children, and any specific gifts or final wishes you want to include. You can answer by voice or by typing — whichever feels comfortable. You can pause and resume at any time.

When you finish, VoiceWill assembles a clearly formatted draft will you can download, review with your spouse or family, and bring to a licensed attorney for review and execution. Because witness and notarization rules differ by state, our state requirements reference shows what your state expects before a will is considered validly executed.

What a complete will typically covers

  • Your full legal identity and family information
  • An executor (and an alternate) to administer the estate
  • Guardianship preferences for minor children
  • Specific gifts of property, jewelry, or sentimental items
  • Residuary instructions — who receives the remainder of the estate
  • Funeral, burial, or cremation preferences (optional)
  • Witness and notarization signature blocks for your state

Beyond the will: the full estate document package

A will controls what happens after you pass away, but it does not address incapacity, healthcare decisions, or financial authority while you are still alive. That is why most planners recommend pairing a will with a revocable living trust, a healthcare directive, and a power of attorney. VoiceWill prepares all of these in one guided conversation, so your wishes stay consistent across documents.

Designed for attorney review

VoiceWill is not a law firm and is not a substitute for legal advice. Our drafts are designed to be attorney-ready: clearly labeled, organized by section, and structured so a licensed attorney in your state can quickly review, refine, and finalize them. If your situation includes business interests, a blended family, special-needs planning, or significant tax exposure, attorney involvement is especially important.

Frequently asked questions

Is an online will legally valid?

A will prepared online can be legally valid, but only if it is properly executed under the laws of your state. Most states require two adult witnesses; some require notarization. VoiceWill produces a draft for you to sign in front of witnesses according to your state's rules. We recommend attorney review before signing.

Do I still need an attorney if I use VoiceWill?

VoiceWill is an attorney-ready estate document assistant — not a law firm. We help you organize your wishes and produce a clean draft. We strongly recommend that a licensed attorney in your state review your final documents before you sign them, especially if you have a complex family or financial situation.

Can I update my will later?

Yes. You can update your information inside VoiceWill and regenerate your draft at any time. Major life changes — marriage, divorce, the birth of a child, a move to a new state, or a significant change in assets — are all good reasons to revisit your will.

What does VoiceWill cost?

VoiceWill uses a simple subscription. See current pricing on the homepage pricing section. There is no per-document fee inside your plan.

What states does VoiceWill support?

VoiceWill supports all 50 U.S. states and the District of Columbia. Your draft adapts to your state's witness, notarization, and execution rules. See our state requirements reference for details.
