Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Georgia

Re: Will from another state

The will is probably valid although no one can tell for sure without taking a look at it. Even if it is, you might want to consider doing a new one because GA now has what are called "self-proving wills" which does away with the expense of tracking down the witnesses to your original will when you pass away. Consult with a local attorney for a fuller explanation.

Re: Will from another state

One could not comment on whether a will is "valid" without seeing it. If the document is executed properly, it is "probably" valid here - but again, one could not say without looking at the document. Even if it is valid, you should see a Georgia attorney to put some local Georgia language into the will to make the administration process go smoothly.
