Can I just write a will for myself?
Good news! Oklahoma allows handwritten (“holographic”) wills. You can write a valid, enforceable will to protect your property as long as you meet the legal requirements. It must be written entirely in your own handwriting, It must be dated, also in your own handwriting, and It must be signed by you. It does not need to be witnessed or notarized and it can be written in any state, not just in Oklahoma. Simple enough, right? Why do we even need estate planning lawyers?! Som
