You and your spouse take a vacation together, leaving the kids with friends. There's an accident. You and your spouse are both killed. Your children are left parentless.

Your will names those same friends, who have children the same age as yours, who share the same values as you, and who you’re sure will love your children as their own, as guardians to your children should tragedy strike. You’ve also named them as trustees, confident that they will invest your children’s money wisely. All of the bases are covered.

But you created your will using an online will site, for convenience's sake. As a result, it was executed improperly and is challenged by your irresponsible brother in probate. The court finds the will invalid, and decides to place the children in the your brother's care, because he is family. What's more, the trusts that you wanted to establish for your children are never created, putting their financial well-being in jeopardy.

Your children and your assets are now in the care of the wrong person -- all because you executed a will for convenience's sake, without the expert guidance of an attorney.

Do-it-yourself online legal services have made it simpler and cheaper for families everywhere to draw up legal documents aimed at ensuring harmony and financial stability in the face of tragic events. But without the careful review and instruction that only an attorney can provide, there is no way to be sure that the documents will hold up in court.
