Making a will is a vital and responsible task but is often put off because the process appears so complicated. The New Zealand Will Kit sets out to change that.

Included in the book are three perforated blank wills (for a single person, a married person with children and a married person without children), so that readers can make their own will and tailor it to their individual circumstances.
