A Will is a document which ensures that your wishes regarding your assets and property are followed after your death. It is an instrument whereby a person making the Will disposes of his/her property, but such disposal comes into effect only after his/her death.
Often, problems and complications arise when a person dies without a Will and their property is distributed according to law or, worse yet, fought over by loved ones. Yet we put off making a Will, not realising the predicament our family may face after our death.
This type of agreement is important because it not only defines the rights and obligations of both parties to the contract, but it was also help the parties avoid and potential confusion which could result in length delays, additional expense and litigation.
Among others, this form includes the following key provisions:
- Appointment of Executors
- Family Members
- List of immovable and movable assets
- Assets devised to wife and others
- Description and Instructions for Simple Will
- Simple Will for use in India
Our Promise to You:
We provide accurate, legal and secure forms. All of our forms are prepared by lawyers, can be downloaded and accessed immediately, and are backed by a 100% money back guarantee – if you are dissatisfied, in any way, you get your money back.

Simple Will
A Will is a document which ensures that your wishes regarding your assets and property are followed after your death. It is an instrument whereby a person making the Will disposes of his/her property, but such disposal comes into effect only after his/her death.
Often, problems and complications arise when a person dies without a Will and their property is distributed according to law or, worse yet, fought over by loved ones. Yet we put off making a Will, not realising the predicament our family may face after our death.
Important
Definitions:
Codicil is an instrument made in relation to a Will, explaining, altering or adding to its dispositions and is deemed to be a part of the Will.
Executor is the legal representative for all purposes of a deceased person (testator) and all the property of a testator vests in him.
Legatee/Beneficiary is a person who inherits the property under a Will.
Probate is a copy of the Will, certified under the seal of a competent Court.
Testator is a person making a Will and executing it.
Essential
Characteristics:
1) A Will must be
in conformity with the law and must be
executed by a person legally competent to make it.
2)
It should relate to disposition of the property
of the person making the Will.
3) Every Will is revocable
during the lifetime of the testator. People capable of making Wills
must have the following characteristics:
a) not a minor
b) be of sound mind
c) be free from fraud, coercion or undue influence
Instructions:
1)
A Will needs to be properly signed and attested. The Will must be
initialed by the testator at the end of every page and next to any
correction and alteration.
2)
A Will can be written in any language without
any technical words. However it should be clearly worded so that the
intention of the testator is reflected in his Will.
3) No stamp duty is required to be paid for executing a Will or a codicil. A Will, therefore, need not be made on stamp paper.
4) A Will must be attested by two witnesses who must witness the testator executing the Will. The witnesses should sign in the presence of each other and in the presence of the testator.
5) Under Parsi and Christian law, a witness cannot be an executor or legatee. However, according to Hindu Law, a witness can be a legatee. A Muslim is not required to have his Will attested if it is in writing.
6) A Will is to be registered with the registrar/sub-registrar with a nominal registration fee. The testator must be personally present at the registrar’s office along with witnesses. In India, the registration of Wills is not compulsory even if it relates to immoveable property. Registration therefore does not give any special sanctity to the Will though registration of the Will by the testator himself evidences the genuineness of the Will.
Whether registered or not, a Will must be proved as duly and validly executed, as required by the Indian Succession Act. Once a Will is registered, it is placed in the safe custody of the Registrar and therefore cannot be tampered with, destroyed, mutilated or stolen.

Prior to purchasing "Simple Will" I did purchase another will form. I found this to be too open ended and lacking in instructions. FINDLEGALFORMS fulfilled my requirements. You receive a number of different document formats to chose from. I used Word. This was able to be edited and changed to suit personal requirements, without any problems. The generic form included relevant criteria to be covered which I would not have thought of without seeking legal advice. All contingencies were covered. The instructions and checklist were clearly listed without any ambiguities. I now have a sense of security that my estate will be acted upon in accordance with my wishes.
