A Notary Public can draft a will easily and perfectly legally in Louisiana. More than likely it will be at a fraction of the cost of an Attorney preparing one for you.
It’s a much more cost effective solution. Just my ¢2...
Notice the attorney’s downvoting, OP? Just do a small exercise for us:
1.) Call a few attorneys and report back the anonymous averaged price of the quotes you get.
2.) Then do the same for a similar amount of Notary Public’s.
3.) Report the numbers and the difference between them in this thread.

I'm not knocking notaries, but drafting a valid will that does what the person wants it to do is really beyond their skill set. Lawyers and notaries alike both make mistakes, but one is specifically educated on how to do this and held to a much higher standard. You may save 2 or 300, but in terms of value, I would say the attorney will is definitely worth the minimal extra cost. In another state, I'm sure a notary could easily draft an effective will. But LA laws are so particular on what constitutes a valid will, I wouldn't let anybody else other than attorney do it (or just handwrite it).

Go back and read the OP. He's also asking for someone to handle the probate process. You shilling for a NP to handle that as well?

Insinuating a notary public can do estate planning is insane. Most attorneys can barely put together a proper estate plan.
