can actually write it yourself...there are standard formats; you need to get two witnesses to see you sign - but they don't need to know the content

otherwise, can go to Rockwills, OSK wealth planners

Quick question: Can a non-muslim name a muslim (not related in any way, by blood or legally) in his will as the rightful person to inherit some of his assets should he die?

There were 2 articles written by lawyers (a Bar council member and another a lawyer) who basically defended writing a will better done by a lawyer as opposed to a professional will writer. I think Penangmee is convinced by these 2 lawyers hence she advises against it.

I feel those articles has some points but overall it's meant to protect their profession rather than to serve the public.
