Is an un-notarized will valid?

James Brian Thomas
Answered by attorney James Brian Thomas (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Burdette & Rice, PLLC
The law varies from one state to another. In Texas, for example, a notary's signature is not needed in order for a Will to be valid. You might, however, find a notary's signature appearing on a Self-Proving Affidavit, which is typically attached to a Will. The affidavit can prevent the need for any of the witnesses to the Will to be physically present to offer their testimony in Court when the Will is offered for admission to probate.

If one heir out of 6 refuses to sign for a house to be sold, is there a way the others can sell it without that signature?

Answered by attorney Bernard H. Greenberg
Estate Planning lawyer at Kokish & Goldmanis, P.C.
The Personal Representative generally has power to sell property of the estate without the consent of the beneficiaries unless the Will provides otherwise or the Court has entered an Order to the contrary. The Personal Representative should consult with their attorney on this question and can seek instructions from the Court before proceeding.
