The basic requirements for a Massachusetts last will and testament include the following: Age: The testator must be at least 18 years old. Capacity: The testator must be of sound mind. Signature: The will must be signed by the testator or by someone else in the testators name in his presence, by his direction.
Contrary to popular belief, there are no rights as a common law spouse. A partner will not inherit even if they live together and/or have children. There is no financial security on death of a partner.
Unfortunately, domestic couples often legally have no automatic right to inheritance if a partner passes away without a Will or any other Estate Plans in place. So for cohabitating couples, if one passes away without a Will (which is called dying Intestate), it can be devastating.

If the common intention is expressed in one instrument, the will may be called a joint will, and if the testators have executed two separate instrument to manifest their common intention, the will may be called a mutual will.
Yes, an unmarried partner can definitely be a beneficiary, but an unmarried partner is not automatically considered to be an heir at law, like a spouse. For unmarried partners to inherit assets from each other, specific estate planning documents are needed to ensure this outcome.
But in most cases, if an unmarried partner dies without a will, the probate court will direct all assets to their family. This means their remaining partner legally cant claim ownership over any part of the estate they are not a joint owner or direct beneficiary of, such as an insurance policy.
