Ohio law still recognizes joint wills, but most estate planning attorneys recommend separate wills or a reciprocal/mirror will arrangement instead. These alternatives allow each spouse to express identical wishes while preserving the flexibility to update their own document if needed.
There is no legal requirement to use an attorney to draft your will. If you know what property you own and who you want to receive it, you are ready to make your will. Because a will is a legal document, it is best to do it through an online legal services company that meets Ohio states requirements.
Here are the requirements for a valid will in Ohio: You must be at least 18 years old. You must be of sound mind and memory. Your decision to execute your will must be free and voluntary. Your will must be in writing, meaning it exists in a physical form.
In Ohio, there is no legal requirement to file or record a last will and testament before the person dies. However, there is a process in Ohio whereby the testator, the person making the will, can deposit the original will with the probate court in the county where the testator lives.
A joint will is one last will and testament, signed by two people, stating their wishes for asset distribution, beneficiaries, guardians for minor children, and administrator for their estate.

Ohio does not require that wills be docHubd. Some states allow wills to be self-proving if they are docHubd, meaning the probate court does not have to call in the witnesses to the will signing to verify its validity. Ohio does not recognize self-proving wills.
