- As an experienced practitioner of trusts and estates, I am
- unalterably opposed to them. If you have enough assets to
- worry about a will, you can afford an attorney to draft one
- for you. If he screws up, your heirs can collect on his
- malpractice insurance. If *you* screw up, who are they gonna
- collect from? I can make a lot more money providing a liti-
- gated clean-up for some do-it-yourselfer's mess than I could
- ever have charged for preparing a will in the first place.
- Do yourself a favor. Hire a lawyer.
