What is Freewill?

FreeWill makes estate planning warm, intuitive, and totally free, so that you can more easily care for the people and causes you love. Nearly 67% of American adults don’t have a legal will, likely because it has traditionally been considered complex, scary, and expensive. FreeWill’s goal is to make estate planning accessible and cost-free for all. To-date, it has empowered 930,000 Americans to write their free wills and raised more than $1 billion (and counting) in charitable gifts to nonprofit organizations.

Is it legal?

Yes! FreeWill is legally valid in all 50 states and D.C., with language specifically tailored to your jurisdiction. Every aspect was developed with the help and expertise of legal advisors, including a variety of practicing attorneys and academics who support FreeWill’s mission to increase Americans' access to law and enable charitable giving. However, if a user would prefer to finalize their will with an attorney, they can use FreeWill to create a list of documented wishes making the process of working with an attorney more streamlined and cost-effective!

Is it really free?

Yes! The no-cost estate planning tools are made possible by the support of hundreds of nonprofit organizations that work on meaningful issues.

Is my information safe?

Yes! FreeWill takes data security very seriously and provides several layers of protection. First, they make sure to encrypt any data entered on the website. Then, they sanitize all data to prevent code injection and XSS attacks. Finally, they do not collect the most sensitive information like Social Security numbers, and instead require users to handwrite this information on all forms where such information is needed so it is never stored online.
