It is okay the only thing i dislike about it is that I stay in Louisiana and the will part of this software does not let you make a will if you live in the state of Louisiana. But other than that the software is pretty good to have for any other forms that you have that need to be made

We bought this to do our first will and were pleasantly surprised at the breadth of topics covered by the program. As a first-timer, I really cannot compare it to other will-related products, but it appears to be well worth the money.

This is okay for people who have never been exposed to wills or trusts. Does not allow you edit easily or transfer docs to legal size etc like Willmaker. I'm sure it has to do with compromising their advice but you just don't have any leeway whereas other programs flat out tell you that if you modify their language it's your responsibility. Probably ok if you know NOTHING about trusts and still want to investigate doing them yourself. I expected more.

5stars - "Looks good.. haven't gotten around to completing the will yet" (A. Waheed)

It is more fun to eat live snails than to sit down and do trusts and wills, not to mention the dreaded Advanced Directive.

Everyone puts off this very necessary chore because they know that going to an attorney is expensive and that all this is necessary because of death, a subject we avoid when possible.

Now there are many software programs that promise to make it possible for many people to do this work at home and without the expense of an attorney. Be aware, though, that attorneys say that people trying to do it themselves can make expensive mistakes and that the fee for professional services is money well spent.

I suspect that many people with uncomplicated estates can probably do ok with a software program, but that complicated estates really need an attorney. The question of what is fairly simple and what is complicated can only be answered by the individual.

Even if you have doubts about doing it yourself, it makes sense to get a program and do it anyway. You will know the kind of questions you have to answer and generally get an idea of the process. Then you can go to an attorney with some backround that will make the process easier, maybe saving an hour or three of expensive attorney time.

The Orman program is heavily advertised and Suze herself is kind of a celebrity. It is also reasonably priced and the advertisements seemed realistic. I went with Suze and successfully filled everything out, got the appropriate forms witnessed and notarized and copies sent to relatives, doctors and hospitals. Felt a lot better afterward as I am sure most people do.

A will is like having a colonoscopy. Everyone knows they should have one, but put it off as long as possible. I was forced into action because I was facing a serious time in the hospital and thought that if I left feet first, that my wife and kids would have a terrible time dealing with stuff a will would make easier. All turned out well, but I am really glad I did the paperwork and do not have to think about it unless things change.

The advanced directive, in case some people don't know, is a legal document that allows a hospital to cut off life support when you are brain dead in case your spouse is not available to give the word. This is not an uncommon occurrence as you could both be dead or incapacitated in a crash, for example. You can be free to go without interference from politicians who think they can raise the dead or from relatives who can't make the decision. Doctors know when it is time.

The Orman program is probably about as simple as it can be, but it deals with legalities, life and death, money and real estate and other property. That is all hard stuff. Attorneys will likely charge close to $2000 to do this because it takes hours of work. So, it is not an easy even for professionals. I managed to complete everything in about five hours. Those that have used tax software will find the process familiar.

Suze gives you stuff to read and also does a voice-over in some cases. Other experts also chime in now and then. I thought this was going to be annoying, but actually found it to be useful. I do suggest earphones or decent speakers if you are forced to operate in a noisy environment.

In California, at least, some of the forms need to be witnessed and notarized. The witnesses cannot be beneficiaries, so you have to get two strangers to sign some ominous documents for someone they do not know. I was lucky to find a couple in the hair salon next door to the notary. This is not the fault of Orman, but still you have to line people up. You might call the notary for advice. Stupid requirement.

There are multiple forms, several pages each. You need to make copies for relatives, your doctor and hospitals. That adds up to a lot of copies and a lot of paper that needs to be accurately collated. I suggest you get a stapler and a bunch of manila mailers that are addressed.

You also need cover letters. For example, the copy of the advanced directive that goes to your doctors should have a cover letter explaining that you are sending the directive so it will be in their files in case the need should arise to use it some day.

I also emailed my relatives and told them their will and directive copies were coming and what my general expectations were. I guess it is more traditional to keep it a secret until the end. Depends, I suppose.

Oh, and one of the forms is a narrative that details the disposition of your property. For example, you could say that aunt Mary gets your collection of pornographic statues, Uncle Bill gets the tv and so on.

So, it took me all day to complete the program, get witnesses and notary, collate and mail everything. That is about as fast as possible I think. Afterward, I felt relieved and accomplished. I had more than one drink in celebration.

There is nothing as nice as getting nagging odious tasks done. And the colonoscopy saved my life, so there.

I gave Suze five stars. I have not compared her program to any of the others. The legal requirements are the same and I figure Orman is in a position to hire competent legal and technical people. There is no way to know if everything will go smoothly for my heirs. One could hire an attorney to look it over and that shouldn't take too long.

The program does a good job of guiding you through a complex procedure. You still have to make decisions, of course, but the fact that this all went smoothly and everything printed was very impressive. This was done on a Mac, which is good since programs like this are usually ported to Windows first. Now that Macs also run Windows makes it even more likely to work for you on any computer.

I am impressed with this program and recommend it. I doubt that there is any way to make a will/trust/directive program any easier and I trust that the people behind it are competent. So, five stars.

5stars - "A difficult job made do-able" (Carlgo)

Overall the Will and Trust kit is very easy to use. It is a bit glitchy on the Mac, but when I switched to the PC I was able to produce all the documents I needed. What I like most is that after creating the Trust document, the program walked me through funding the trust. It does not matter how much you know about Wills and Trusts, all you need to know is who you want to get what when you die. As a bonus you get the Living Will document. This is something I wish my father had when he was sick and finally died.

The software does not give enough info about what this software is capable of doing. For example, I found out in the middle of interview questions that the software can not do AB trust. THis makes this software totally useless.

I bought this in 2006. The software is easy to use, and helps you to create many, many documents for household and personal financial management. I have used it for myself and for my roommate. It has saved us thousands of dollars in legal fees. I keep my copy current via updates from the company. You can still use it after 2007; they just add a warning on one of the cover sheets when you print stuff, advising you that you have an old copy (but the warning is not part of your document). I would buy this again, if I needed it.

Very easy to use, but only effective for very simple wills. If your estate will go to more than one person, it requires a lot of modification not in the software.

Software is adequate in that in follows generalized formats and you can print out your will to get it notarized. The biggest shortcoming is in "specific bequests". Due to the confusion from the instructions and the software's lack of allowing me to be specific, I ended up making a separate list of "who gets what" and put "see attached sheet(s)" in the specific bequests section of the will.

I knew when I bought this that it was an older version, but it works great with Windows 2000 and Vista. It is a little tricky to load your existing files but they are in there when you find the way to load them. What you do is double click the category of the document from the list on the left, then your saved document will pop up. Software came in a factory sealed box and you can't beat it for the price.

I love this product. As a matter of fact, I had an older version which I used quite often and decided to update it as it has the most recent laws by state. I have used it to prepare Wills for myself and several family members, for Bills of sale for vehicles and boats and many other legal documents. It is extremely easy to use since all you do is select the document and run through a questionnaire, then the software prepares the document for you. It has saved me alot of money in legal fees.

I realize that my review is not about this product, but I think it is relevant to potential purchasers of Avanquest products. I do not know anything about this particular program, but have had considerable difficulty with Avanquest as detailed below.

I purchased My Ultimate Organizer 7.0 via download and subsequent key.

I am not making this up - the product displayed a message in Serbo-Croatian telling me the key had expired.

Four hours later with Technical Support and the problem is still not resolved (despite erasing the program, reinstalling, trying different keys, searching the Windows Registry, etc). It takes a full hour on hold to get a technical support representative and at the conclusion of the last session, I was told to contact Customer Service for a CD copy in the hopes that that would resolve the issue. Now Customer Service tells me Technical Support must send me the copy, although Technical Support says otherwise. I am out $30 for a program that is at this point, totally useless, and left adrift by Avanquest who has my money and refuses to help me.

I would purchase Avanquest products with extreme caution. If you have a Technical Support issue, you will have to wait a minimum of 60 minutes on hold (no 800 number), and then get fairly substandard service after that.

1stars - "YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED" (Mama to Aid'nAsh)

Haven't used for very long but found the software extremely easy to use.
I was able to draw up several documents (wills, POA's, etc..) for my parents in about 1 hour. The program not only creates the documents from answering questions but also gives you pertinant legal information on each question to help you answer it appropriatly.
There are so many documents to choose from and I look forward to having access to them as needed.
Only downside I can see, so far,is that state laws may change and you have to pay a fee if you want online help.

This product has provided me with several useful solutions to business problems. I found it easy to use and a useful business tool. I use this program in my daily business functions and we find it very helpful; it makes it easier to organize your company and produce the necessary paperwork to keep you on top of things.

My company 3 Tier Nutrition, Inc., uses it for corporate meeting and consents as well as some basic contracts. But before making any official documentation consult a lawyer for legal advise. We work with a legal firm and have a law student in our company.

I also noted some interesting documentation for landlords and real estate investors as well. It contains real estate sales/purchasing contract templates and leasing too.

I personally like the Nolo legal guides and products. They have given me a better grasp on business legal matters and alternative solutions. I recommend this product to new business owners, real estate investors, and legal students.

I like Legal Business Pro because the interview syle makes it easy to complete the documents in its list. The list of documents is well populated also.

I used an earlier version that had a feature that I miss in this one. When you went into review mode, the answers to the interview questions were highlighted and you could click on them to go directly to that question. I haven't found that feature in this version and I miss it. It is cumbersome to have to always start at the beginning of the interview and page forward to find the item you need to change.

Also, I don't understand why it so difficult to make a "Save as..." copy of a document, but I'm sure I will find a work-around. That earlier version was a little better in this respect also.

Otherwise, the application is a very good product.
