Re: Requirments of a Will
1) Person +18 years of age of "sound mind"; 2) Must be in writing; 3) Signed by the testator (person subject of will; 4) Must have at least 2 witnesses to the will who also sign; and 5) Must clearly indicate the intent of the testator.
These are the very "general" general requirements. Of course, there are "depends on" factors involved.
Please feel free to contact me for specifics. I would be happy to help you.
