Is there anyone who can recommend a good notary around Zug for creating a relatively simple Will for a fair or maybe fixed price? Or any other related tips?
Thank you very much in advance!

Hi,
Usually, the first 30 minutes with a Notary are free.
I could always write or amend my will with a Notary in less than 30 minutes.
The public notaries I know usually want to get paid.
You could also try and give this a spin: https://www.deinadieu.ch/
If it's simple you don't need a notary at all.
It has to be a handwritten, signed and dated with the place of signature and an original document. It should also respect the mandatory allocations for spouse, children etc.
It is probably best to add that it is your only will and countermands any previous will (in any country).
The Swiss Red Cross have a advisory service where they advise you to include their organisation in your will.
The World Wildlife fund go one better and recommend that you reduce the amount paid to your relatives to the minimum and give half of the rest to them. https://www.wwf.ch/sites/default/fil…atgeber_DE.pdf
Hecks have something similar: https://www.heks.ch/sites/default/fi…Broschuere.pdf
It can be simple when you don't know the law and the consequences of getting it wrong!
I once had to explain to a business owner that the premises he 'bought' did not in fact belong to him - it was so simple he that he did it himself, sure what could go wrong.
