When a testator dies, an “interested party” may ask to get a copy by filing a written request along with a death certificate for the testator. Use the Request for Access to Confidential or Sealed Record to make a request. Explain your relationship to the testator and why you want a copy of the Will.
Yes, in Minnesota wills are considered public record once they have been filed with the probate court. This means that anyone can request a copy of the will from the court.
If you are interested in obtaining a will filed in Hennepin (including Minneapolis), Marshall, or St. Louis (including Duluth) counties, please contact that county's court records or court administration department.
A will does not have to be "filed" anywhere after it is signed and witnessed, but make sure it can be found after you die. Make sure it is in a safe place. You can give it to your Personal Representative since this is a person you trust and is the person who makes sure your wishes are carried out.
