About Us
The Company
USLegalWills.com
is operated by PartingWishes Inc., an independent organization which works
with lawyers in the United States to provide legal document
creation services to the public, but is not itself tied to a particular law firm.
Formed in 2000, the company has a dedicated team devoted
to ensuring high customer service, as well as an extensive list
of partners and private investors.
Our mandate is to allow people to create
common legal documents in a very easy, convenient, private, secure and
cost-effective manner, without the need to pay the high expenses of a
lawyer. We go far beyond any do-it-yourself kit or online repository of
legal forms and documents. If you wish, all of your legal documents can be
stored and maintained by you online, in a completely private and secure
manner. This will ensure that you can keep it updated to reflect any changes
in your financial or family situation.
The
USLegalWills.com
website allows members to document their Last
Will and Testament, Living Will and Power of Attorney.
Furthermore, at no extra cost, members can specify their funeral wishes,
upload important files and documents,
and even create messages to
be sent after they have
passed away.
USLegalWills.com
uses a unique Member-Keyholder® relationship, which
ensures that the information created by our members is completely secure,
yet available to their designated personal Keyholders® only at the
appropriate time.

Attorney, Juris Doctor, J. Reuben Clark Law School
As a licensed attorney I conducted a detailed review of the service at USLegalWills.com.
This service is definitely worth the price and offers so much more than I expected.
The service covers so much while still remaining straight-forward and easy to use!
The simplicity with which this site collects your information may lead you to believe
that the final document might not be up to par. This was not my experience.
The incorporation of your information into a legal document with the correct protections
and specifications for those benefiting from your estate or involved in the carrying out
of your will was precise and very much met the standards of a legally enforceable document.
