That’s the problem I have with them. We have a practice that’s largely estate planning and probate. I’ve had 10 internet-prepared wills brought in for probate, and 9 of them were legally insufficient; i.e., didn’t comply with some combination of Texas Estates (fmrly Probate) Code requirements, didn’t dispose of the estate the way it was told to me the testator wanted it disposed of, or were so full of pseudolegal gobbledygook that they looked like pleadings filed by a Republic of Texas sovereign citizen.
What happens in those cases is that the will is invalid and the property is disposed of according to the laws of descent and distribution, which is very often not what the testator intended.
I haven’t gone into my time on the local subcommittee of the Unauthorized Practice of Law Committee, but there’s always at least one Legalzoom case on the list.
