Re: Writing own wills

Why would you even want to try to write one of the most important legal documents in your life without hiring an attorney? In Missouri such Wills may be recognized and given legal effect only under certain extreme circumstances. In my opinion, what you are attempting to do will only cause more legal problems for your survivors. Please take my advice and hire a competent attorney.
