Holographic v. statutory Will
In the legal field there are a variety of wills available to choose from. Holographic and statutory wills are just a few wills out there. Do not jump into anything you are unsure of. If there is something you don’t understand, always do your homework and research for doing anything.
Here are two wills you can choose from when you are writing your own will.
Holographic benefits-
Holographic wills are the least expensive. Holographic means to write something in your own handwriting. This type of will can be written in your own handwriting. This saves the cost of having a lawyer prepare one for you. Holographic wills do not always require witnesses to sign the document. This is true for some states.
Statutory benefits –
Statutory wills are not as common as the holographic ones and the other wills available. But they are just as easy to prepare as the holographic will. A statutory will is a fill-in-the-blank form. This type of will eliminates the pressures of having to come up with the words yourself.
Writing a will the statutory way is as easy as pie. Fill in the blank has made writing a will much simpler. Fill in the blank isn’t the option available with statutory wills. Check the box is an option also available with this type of will.
Wills are ideal to have on hand. Death seems to be around lurking in the dark awaiting for the right moment to attack. We must be prepared for our final chapters. Those who do have a will leave their family and friends with the pressure of how to prepare for the final resting place.
Choose the will that best fits your needs. Do your research first. This will help you to decide which one is for you. Not every will is for everyone. You must find the best one for you and your needs. Your needs are important when writing the will. Be simple and to the point.
A key fact to writing any will is to have more than one copy. Families in the end usually fight over the littlest things. A will can help eliminate some of the fighting. This isn’t always possible. Families will fight no matter what the circumstances may be.
Don’t worry so much about the wording. Just write, put words on paper. The will is just like writing a letter to those who are left behind.
