Create a Legally Binding Will Online in Minutes With FastWill

When we think of protecting our loved ones, we often focus on the present — showing up, providing, caring. But what happens after we’re gone? Creating a will isn’t about dwelling on death; it’s about empowering your family to thrive without confusion, legal burdens, or uncertainty. FastWill makes that process easier than ever, especially for families who deserve peace of mind but don’t know where to start.

Why Having a Will Matters More Than You Think


A will isn’t just paperwork. It’s a final act of love and clarity. Without one, your assets could be distributed by the court, not according to your wishes. That means your partner, children, or even beloved pets could be left vulnerable.

  • Do Executors Need a Probate Lawyer? When Going Without a Probate Attorney Becomes Dangerous
    Not every estate needs an attorney, but most do. Simple estates under $500,000 with clear wills and straightforward assets might be safe for DIY administration. But estate tax requirements, business interests, real estate in multiple states, will contests, or creditor disputes require professional help.
  • The Executor Errors You Can’t Undo: Costly Mistakes That Become Your Financial Problem
    Some executor mistakes you can fix with amended filings or apologies. Others are permanent. Paying beneficiaries before creditors, missing tax deadlines, selling assets without authorization, destroying property before inventory, and self-dealing create personal liability that lasts years beyond estate closure.
  • Digital Executor Duties Nobody Prepared You For: Crypto, Cloud Accounts & Social Media Access Laws
    Traditional executor guides focus on bank accounts and real estate, ignoring the digital assets that now comprise significant portions of estates. Cryptocurrency wallets, cloud storage with irreplaceable family photos, social media accounts, NFTs, and password-protected online businesses create executor duties nobody teaches you about. Without proper legal authority and technical knowledge, executors lose access to assets worth thousands or destroy digital legacies families can never recover.
