Unless you are not up, at all, on legal matters, making your own will is easy. I have to say that I write contracts, in my profession, and have been doing so since I was twelve, but writing a will is fairly straightforward. A crucial part: Get it notarized (you might consider having a witness sign it, as well), seal it, put tape on all seams and edges of the envelope, put a directive on the outside that the envelope should only be opened by a licensed probate attorney, put ink pad stamps all over where the tape meets the paper of the envelope, for security, to show it hasn't been opened/tampered with, since you sealed it. File it somewhere where your executor knows, or give it to your family attorney, for safekeeping. I'm not a lawyer (legal disclaimer).
