FAQ
As with many legal questions, the answer is: ?it depends.? In order for a will to be validly executed, Oregon law requires that a will be (1) in writing, (2) signed by the testator (or person making the will), and (3) signed by two witnesses who saw the testator sign the will. ORS 112.235.
In Oregon, you must be at least 18 years old and of sound mind to make a will. If you are married or emancipated, you can make a will before you turn 18. Your will must be in writing and must be signed by you and two witnesses. Some people cannot serve as witnesses to your will.
The short answer is no. Wills that are handwritten and not witnessed are not recognized as valid in Oregon. A handwritten will that is witnessed by two individuals will be considered valid.
Although Oregon does not require a will to be notarized, the state allows you to make your will ?self-proving,? which does require a notary. A self-proving will speeds up probate because the court can accept the will without contacting the witnesses who signed it.
THE WILL MUST BE IN WRITING A notarial Will must be in writing and executed in a language known to the testator (Art. 804). Unlike a holographic will, a notarial Will need not be handwritten by the testator. A notarial Will can be printed (if a Will is printed, it cannot be a holographic will).
