Does it need to be notarized? Yes, a living trust should be notarized in Illinois. Notarization is not always required, but its recommended to ensure the trust isnt contested and that the successor trustee (the one after you cant do it anymore) can manage the trust assets more easily.
An Illinois Will must be in writing, contain your signature and the signatures of two credible witnesses. State law doesnt require Illinois Wills to be notarized.
You might also want to consider getting the Living Will notarized. While Illinois does not require a Living Will to be notarized, some states require a document to be both witnessed and notarized to be valid. When a notary signs your Living Will, it proves to everyone else that you signed it.
The will must be signed by the maker and must be witnessed by two witnesses in the special manner provided by law. Persons who are beneficiaries under the will cannot serve as witnesses. After death, the will is presented in court and, after being proven valid, is put into effect and its provisions are carried out.
