morning all. not completely a covid topic, but it spurred this on.
Thought this might be thread worthy, plus I could use some advice.
Even though we should have found the money and had it done, my wife and I have no wills.
Obviously with the pandemic, dying is on the mind of many people including my wife.
I'm going to contact my credit union as they in the past have had estate planning to work on the content and then forward to a lawyer.
not sure if they still have that service in a modified format.
If they don't, is a do it yourself will better than nothing?
something alone this line of this website?

If that's all you had, would they take it into account at all?
before my wife and I spend the money to each do one (as I have read joint wills are outdated and a really bad idea)
I was curious if there was any value to them at all.
any lawyers around today? are law offices that specialize in this sort of thing likely still going and just doing as much as possible remotely?
Maybe everything done in a virtual format except the actual signing?
