More On Texas Wills And Probate:

A will is a legal instrument which states how the testator’s property is to be distributed at death. A valid will avoids many of the problems that may arise from dying without a will and allows a person to leave property to the persons he or she desires.

When a person dies without a will, the law determines who are the heirs. You don’t want the state determining who receives your property. Dying without a will may trigger undesired results and unexpected costs and delays.

For a typewritten will to be valid, it must meet three requirements:

• be signed by the testator or another person at his or her direction and in his or her presence;
• be attested by two credible witnesses above the age of 14; and
• be signed by the witnesses in the presence of the testator.
