Can I write my own will and have it docHubd in Delaware?

No, in Delaware, you dont need to docHub your will to make it legal. However, Delaware 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.

Do you need a lawyer to make a will in Delaware?

Delaware does not require that you use an attorney to create your will. If you know what property you own and who you want to give it to, you are ready to make your will. Many people who prefer doing it themselves use a form service.
