Built by a Michigan Estate Planning Law Firm

CreateMIWill was built by a Michigan estate planning law firm with over 30 years of combined experience drafting wills, trusts, and estate plans for Michigan families.

Every day, people call our firm needing estate planning but unable to afford full attorney representation. We built CreateMIWill so those families could still get attorney-quality documents at a price that makes sense. These are the same templates and legal frameworks we use in our practice, packaged with step-by-step instructions so you can complete them on your own.

Every document is drafted to comply with Michigan's Estates and Protected Individuals Code (EPIC). Every template is reviewed and updated as Michigan law changes. This is not a generic one-size-fits-all product — it is built specifically for Michigan residents by attorneys who practice Michigan estate law.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are these documents legally valid in Michigan?

Yes. Every template is drafted to comply with the Michigan Estates and Protected Individuals Code (EPIC), specifically MCL 700.2502 for wills and the Michigan Trust Code for trusts. The kits include detailed execution instructions to ensure your documents are properly signed and witnessed according to Michigan law.

Do I still need a lawyer?

For straightforward situations — a married couple with children, clear beneficiaries, and standard assets — these kits provide everything you need. If you have a blended family, significant business interests, assets over $1 million, or complex tax situations, we recommend consulting with an estate planning attorney for personalized advice.

What's included in each kit?

Every kit includes the legal document template(s) in fillable PDF and editable DOCX format, a comprehensive step-by-step instruction guide, and Michigan-specific execution requirements. Some kits include additional resources like planning worksheets, checklists, and supplemental templates.

Can I use these templates if I live outside Michigan?

These templates are specifically drafted for Michigan residents under Michigan law. While the general concepts apply broadly, the statutory references, execution requirements, and specific provisions are Michigan-specific. If you live in another state, check back — we're expanding to additional states soon.

What format do I receive the documents in?

You receive both fillable PDF files (which you can complete on your computer and print) and editable DOCX files (which you can customize in Microsoft Word or Google Docs). The instruction guides are in PDF format for easy reading and printing.

Is there a money-back guarantee?

Absolutely. If you're not satisfied with your purchase for any reason, contact us within 30 days for a full refund. No questions asked.

How is this different from LegalZoom?

LegalZoom uses questionnaire-generated documents, with attorney review available as a paid add-on ($150–$299). Our templates are attorney-drafted from the start — every provision is written by a practicing Michigan estate planning attorney. You also get detailed instruction guides that LegalZoom doesn't provide. And our Will Kit is $89 versus LegalZoom's $99–$249.

Does my Will need to be notarized?

In Michigan, a Will does not need to be notarized to be valid. However, we strongly recommend completing the included Self-Proving Affidavit, which does require a notary public. This affidavit simplifies the probate process significantly by eliminating the need for your witnesses to testify in court.
