Entering Information About Your Children in Your Online Will

Listing Your Children

Becoming a parent is what may have motivated you to buckle down to the task of writing your will in the first place.

Personal Guardians for your Minor Children

Among the most pressing concerns of parents with minor children is who will care for the children if one or both of them die before the children reach adulthood.

Explaining Your Choice for Personal Guardian

Nolo’s Online Will gives you the option to include a brief statement in your will that explains your choice for personal guardian.

Naming Grandchildren

Name all of your grandchildren, even if you plan to leave them nothing.

Why You Must Mark the Box

When making your will with Nolo's Online Will, you must agree to a sentence like this that will appear in your will document:
