To help you prepare to see your attorney, you may use the following questionnaire to compile information your attorney will need to help you develop an estate plan. Your attorney may prefer to use other questionnaires and may need additional information. Call your attorney before your appointment to see what information he or she may need.

You may use the following questionnaire, either by typing your answers directly on the screen or by printing a blank copy and filling out the hard copy. If you choose to type in your answers directly on the screen, print a copy when you are finished. Exiting the program will lose any information you have typed into the questionnaire. Do not try to save your answers in a file because your answers will be erased in the saved file. You will not be asked to transmit your answers over the phone line, so your answers are as secure as your computer. Tip: Print the file often to make sure that you do not lose the information you have entered. Or, fill out a hard copy first, and then enter the information on the computer screen to print.
