It was an easy format to follow and really helped me organize my thoughts. I wish there was the ability for more precise customization, but it provided a good starting point to complete an initial document, with the idea of creating a more complex will down the road.

I have a major issue with the will

The experience creating the will is excellent.

But I find a major issue with the will:
At section 6(g) 2nd paragraph regarding splitting a non survivor beneficiary’s part among other surviving beneficiaries, it is “in equal shares” but most people would prefer it to be each according to the percent allocated to him divided by the sum of percents allocated to all surviving beneficiaries.
I used the good option of descendants inherit non-survivors.
Imagine a split of 69% to the spouse, 30% to a child, and 1% to a nephew.
If I die in an accident with my spouse and child all goes to the nephew. This is good. But if I die in an accident with my spouse, the 69% is split equally and the child gets 64.5% instead of most of the estate. IE the child gets twice instead of 30 times more than the nephew. This is unreasonable.
I would like to add that a workaround might be to move a beneficiary with a small share to be a contingent beneficiary and give him a specific gift.

Another small bug to improve: the items on the specific gift list are not shown in the will document at the same order as entered in the interface. they also move around when you edit them. I highly suggest they be shown in the will document at the same order they are shown at the interface. the option to reorder them on the interface will be great, but this is only nice to have.

Thanks for your thoughtful feedback and for highlighting that scenario.


You’re absolutely right that in some cases, the outcome of the “share among surviving beneficiaries” option can feel unintuitive—especially when one beneficiary has a significantly smaller share than the others.


As you pointed out, if you select to split a predeceased beneficiary’s share among the others, it will be split equally—not proportionally based on their original shares. So in your example, if your spouse (69%) passed away before you, their share would be divided 50/50 between your child and nephew. That would result in your child receiving 64.5% and your nephew 35.5%, which may not align with your intentions.


To help avoid that outcome, you could select the “going directly to their children” option. That way, if your spouse or child passes away before you, their portion would go to their descendants (if you've added them), or to whoever you’ve chosen as their replacement. In this case, your child would inherit both their own and your spouse’s share (totaling 99%), while your nephew would still receive 1%—which sounds like your intended plan.


Another option, as you suggested, is to remove the smaller-share beneficiary from the primary list and instead include them as a contingent beneficiary or assign them a specific gift. This helps ensure the rest of your estate goes to your key beneficiaries in the way you intended.


We also want to let you know that we completely understand what you mean about wanting the predeceased beneficiary’s share to be divided proportionally. While that isn’t currently supported on our platform, we recognize that added flexibility would be helpful, and it’s something our team is actively exploring for the future.


Please don't hesitate to reach out if you have any other questions or if you’d like help walking through different scenarios.

I had been thinking about setting up my will for a long time but kept putting it off because I assumed it would be complicated and time-consuming. Using Willful completely changed that.

Very easy to complete

Very easy to complete. The one issue I came up is that my Trustee for Beneficiaries and my executor are two different people. This isn’t common, but would have been helpful if I’d had the option. It would have been helpful so that I didn’t have to make amendments myself.
