Can I make a handwritten will?
A handwritten will is called a "holographic will." It is valid in about 25 states so long as all material provisions and clauses are entirely handwritten. However, because most handwritten wills are not as in-depth as the EstateGuidance will and because they are oftentimes not properly written, we do not recommend them. The court can be unusually strict in determining whether a holographic will is authentic. More importantly, we do not recommend that people revise their wills by hand.
