Although Arkansas doesnt mandate notarization for the validity of a will, there are certain practical advantages to having a will docHubd. A docHubd will can streamline the probate process by providing clear evidence of authenticity and the testators intent.
You do not need an attorney to create a will in Arkansas and can create your own based on your own wishes. However, because a will is a complex legal document, it is a good idea to get help from online will creation resources so you can be sure that your will meets Arkansas requirements.
Generally, you can create and draft your own Will (not recommended for many reasons, but yes you can). You can draft the Will and get two witnesses and a notary, if you find a local notary, they can help with that part, with respect to notarization and witnesses usually.
No, in Arkansas, you do not need to docHub your will to make it legal. However, Arkansas allows you to make your will self-proving, and youll need to go to a notary if you want to do that. A self-proving will speeds up probate because the court can accept the will without contacting the witnesses who signed it.
To make a valid will in Arkansas, you must be an adult and competent (meaning having a sound mind), put your will in writing, and sign your will in front of two witnesses. Although you do not need a notary, it helps streamline the probate process.

In most cases, your spouse freely inherits 1/2 of your real estate and 1/2 of your personal property. (Ark. Code 28-11-307 (2023).) In addition to the protections of dower and curtesy, if you are married and you die without a will, your spouse may receive some of your intestate property.
