FAQ
Will Probate Be Necessary? Probate court proceedings aren't always necessary. Usually, they are required only if the deceased person owned assets in his or her name alone. Other assets can probably be transferred to their new owners without probate.
Does Massachusetts recognize domestic partnerships? Yes. Massachusetts allows any couple to register for domestic partnership if they meet certain requirements. Requirements for domestic partnership can be viewed in the section above that lists them.
You can either download a template (many are free) and write your Will at your own pace offline using your word processor, or tell us your wishes in our online questionnaire and let us write it for you.
It does not matter whether the will was prepared online or by an attorney, so long as it is valid. In order for a will to be valid, it must meet the requirements of the state where the testator lives.
In Massachusetts, if you are over 18 and of sound mind, and have the signatures of 2 witnesses, your handwritten will may be considered valid. However, there are some issues you should consider before deciding a handwritten will (also called holographic) is sufficient for your estate planning needs.
There must be multiple witnesses of a will in order for it to be valid. In Massachusetts, there must be a minimum of two witnesses, and in most circumstances, they should not be set to benefit from the outcome of the will.
No, in Massachusetts, it is not necessary to notarize your will to make it legal. Massachusetts does, however, allow you to make your will "self-proving." A self-proving will speeds up probate because the court can accept the will without contacting the witnesses who signed it.
Technically, you can create your own will in Massachusetts. The only legal requirement is that you sign it in front of at least 2 witnesses and that those witnesses also sign the will.
