We have answers to the most popular questions from our customers. If you can't find an answer to your question, please contact us.

Does a divorce agreement override a will?

Typically a divorce settlement will void any will written previous to the settlement. This is to prevent an ex-spouse from inheriting when there is a new spouse involved.

What are the requirements for a will to be valid in Virginia?

64.2-403. No will shall be valid unless it is in writing and signed by the testator, or by some other person in the testators presence and by his direction, in such a manner as to make it manifest that the name is intended as a signature.

Can one spouse make a will without the other?

In most cases, no matter what a loved one wrote in their will, their spouse is still entitled to a portion of the estate ing to state probate law. A person is legally entitled to make a will without notifying their spouse or revealing the contents to them.

What are the factors used to determine if a will is valid?

The will must be in writing, signed by the testator or by someone else at the testators direction and in their presence. It must also be signed by at least two witnesses. The will must be notarized.

Do wills have to be registered in Virginia?

The personal representative of the testator shall cause a certified copy of any will or of any authenticated copy so admitted to record to be recorded in any county or city wherein there is any real estate of which the testator possessed at the time of his death or that is devised by his will.

Does Virginia require wills to be notarized?

Although the law does not require a will to be notarized, it is a highly recommended practice followed by most lawyers. If the will includes a notarized Self-Proving Affidavit, the will is presumed to be properly executed and is accepted by the court without testimony from the witnesses.

What happens to a will if you get divorced?

For example, California law (Probate Code 6122) states that: Unless the will expressly provides otherwise, if after executing a will the testators marriage is dissolved or annulled, the dissolution or annulment revokes any disposition or appointment of property made by the will to the former spouse.
