Does a handwritten will stand up in court?

Yes, this is what's called a holographic will and also a holographic will is a will that the individual does in their very own handwriting and after that signs it as well as dates it at the page bottom or dates it at the page top and signs at the bottom, whichever they do. A handwritten will can not be transcribed out by somebody else and also after that executed by the decedent or your loved one. It's actually important to know that a hand written last will and testament is in fact a very powerful document as long as it is implemented correctly in the individual's very own handwriting, dated and signed.
