No, in Alabama, you dont need to docHub your will to make it legal. However, Alabama allows you to make your will self-proving, and youll need to use 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.
However, you may want independent witnesses so no one can claim someone unduly influenced you. Notary: An Alabama will does not have to have a notary publics signature. But you will require a notary if you want to use a self-proving affidavit.
You do not have to have a will, but it is a good idea, especially if you have a house and land. If you do not have a will, your property will pass to your closest relatives and be divided as set by Alabama law. Your property does not go to the state if you dont have a will unless no family members are left.
Any person in possession of the Will must, by Alabama law, deliver the Will to the Probate Court or to a person who is able to have the Will probated. A person in possession of the Will can be required to produce it.
Many people think making a will is a complicated process that requires the help of an attorney. However, if you have a simple estate plan, you can successfully write your own will without a lawyer.
