Instructions for Using the Free Sample New York Will Form

The person making the will has to say to the witnesses: “This is my Will.”

The person making the will must sign in the presence of the witnesses – the witnesses must see him/her sign.

Witnesses must sign in the appropriate spaces.

WARNINGS!

Even if you think you are using this NYC will form the right way, it still may not work and it’s not guaranteed to work. Best hire a New York estate attorney and get it done the right way.

This is a form for the simplest NY Will possible. Only use this sample New York Will form in very small and very simple estates and when you are absolutely sure that the Will is not going to be contested.

This form only works to give your entire estate to one person. If you’re going to modify this form to do something else, it may not work the way you expect it to.

You are taking a risk – without the advice of an estate attorney, the Will may not work the way you expect and may not stand up to a Will challenge if one is ever brought.

You can only use this sample will form for yourself. Using it for someone else constitutes unauthorized practice of law and is illegal and can subject a person to criminal penalties.

We realize that you are looking for a free New York will, but using one without an attorney is not a good idea. It is our belief that you need a lawyer to make a will.

LATER CHANGES

Any changes you make to the will after it gets signed in front of witnesses will not be valid – you’ll need to make a new Will.

No support is provided for this form. Use it at your own risk.

Thanks to Mr. Albert Goodwin's hard work and smart thinking, I finally won my case, which has been a long time coming. He figured out solutions that no one else could see. I'm really impressed by his strong ethics - something that's rare these days. As my lawyer, he went above and beyond what I expected. I'm so grateful I found him and would definitely recommend him to anyone needing legal help.

From our first meeting, I knew I was in great hands with Albert and his associate Katrina. They handled my case with incredible skill and efficiency, even though they took it over from another firm. What impressed me most was how quickly Albert responded to my questions with honest, clear answers - no sugarcoating, just straight talk. They managed a huge workload under tight deadlines, and their fees were very reasonable for such high-quality work. Beyond his legal expertise, Albert's wit and personality made a difficult process much easier to handle. I'm deeply grateful for their hard work and would absolutely choose them again. If you need legal help in New York, you won't find better representation than Albert's firm.
