<prompt> Human: My wife and I just had our first child so we have discussed the need to have a will prepared. I would consider us to have a fairly simple situation, our child and any future children would go to friends whom we have already discussed this with. Any finances would be managed by a family member until children come of age. My wife wants to go into an attorneys office who charges 350hr and wouldnt provide a time estimate while I am more inclined to use online software such as legal zoom. Ideally I would like to keep the cost at or under 350 but I obviously dont want to have a deficient will. What is a reasonable price?Location: MD  <response>: You should find an attorney that will agree to a fixed fee for your basic will - just keep calling around, and make sure to explain it is a basic, simple will.LegalZoom is OK, but there are many minor details that would benefit from a professional handling the paperwork.
