WHAT SETS GEORGIA WILLS & TRUSTS APART?

Georgia Wills & Trusts helps you create high-quality estate planning documents tailored to your clients’ individual needs. Authored by nationally recognized estate planning experts, the program's patented Intelligent Legal Technology® uses a question and answer session to guide you through the drafting process, with up-to-date research and analysis tailored to each question on screen when you need it. You can also see your document change as you select among a question’s choices. The documents generated are legally sound and internally consistent and are sent to your word processor. Most importantly, the software works! This is the system that Holland & Knight uses to draft its estate planning documents.
