Does a handwritten will work in court?

Mar 30

Yes, this is what's called a holographic will and also a holographic will is a Last Will that the person does in their own handwriting and then executes it and also dates it at the bottom or dates it at the page top and signs at the bottom, whichever they do. A handwritten will can not be transcribed out by someone else and then executed by the decedent or your loved one. It's truly essential to recognize that a handwritten last will and testament is really a really effective document as long as it is implemented properly in the individual's own handwriting, dated and executed.
