FreeWill makes estate planning warm, intuitive, and totally free.

So you can more easily care for the people and causes you love.

70% of adults in the U.S. do not have a will.

Estate planning is traditionally considered complex, scary, and expensive. That’s why we set out to build a simple tool that anyone can use to create these important documents. All estate plans made using FreeWill are 100% legal and specifically tailored to your jurisdiction.

Here at FreeWill, we also believe in the human instinct to do good—that’s why we’ve made charitable giving especially easy. To date, people have used our platform to commit more than $11.9B+ to nonprofit organizations.

FreeWill really is free!

Our no-cost estate planning tools are made possible by the support of hundreds of nonprofit organizations that work on meaningful issues.

Many people who create their estate plans on FreeWill choose to leave a gift to a cause they care about, and we hope you’ll consider doing the same. It's never too soon to consider the legacy you want to leave behind.

We like hard problems. We are never stagnant. We take care of each other and make each other laugh. We believe that being critical and kind can come hand-in-hand. We take complete responsibility for our own work and believe that a job can be more than a way to make money. We're always on the lookout for smart, tenacious, and kind people.
