How To Validly Execute a Will under Florida Law
Florida statute 732.502 describes how to validly execute a Will under Florida law. To be valid under Florida law, the Will must be signed by the Testator (creator) in the front of two witnesses.
The Testator must sign the Will at the end of the Will. The Testator must sign the Will in front of two witnesses and the two witnesses must sign the Will in front of each other.
Further, a codicil (an amendment to your Will) must be executed just as a Will is executed.
If you have questions as to whether or not your Will was validly executed, please contact our estate planning attorney at Wood, Atter & Wolf, P.A. located in Jacksonville and Ponte Vedra Beach, Florida.
