Is an un-notarized will valid?

Dara J. Goldsmith
Answered by attorney Dara J. Goldsmith
Estate Planning lawyer at Goldsmith & Guymon, P.C.
If the Will meets the other requirements and is witnessed by two disinterested persons, of which you can locate one to sign an appropriate affidavit, the Will may be valid. If it is not witnessed and is solely in her own handwriting, and the will is dated, signed and sets froth that it intends to dispose of her property upon her death, it may be valid as a holographic Will. You should probably speak with an attorney and have the Will reviewed.

Is an un-notarized will valid?

James Brian Thomas
Answered by attorney James Brian Thomas (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Burdette & Rice, PLLC
The law varies from one state to another. In Texas, for example, a notary's signature is not needed in order for a Will to be valid. You might, however, find a notary's signature appearing on a Self-Proving Affidavit, which is typically attached to a Will. The affidavit can prevent the need for any of the witnesses to the Will to be physically present to offer their testimony in Court when the Will is offered for admission to probate.
