Looking to make a will. Anybody have any suggestions? Are online ones any good or do I need a proper lawyer? Things to look out for?

Thanks, yeah, sounds like it's worth getting one then as I meet some of those criteria.

Any advice on how to find a good lawyer?

LinkedIn, look for lawyers that specialize in wills and estates, then interview three or four. Or all family, friends and neighbours if they have worked with a lawyer that they liked. Ask about their prices and their rates. You don’t want someone who just uses a template and file in the blanks, you want one that will ask you a lot of equations to really understand your situation.

If you’re in Alberta, DM me and I can recommend a couple.
