Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Illinois
Death before verbal changes were made to will
My relative made verbal changes to his will by speaking on the phone to his attorney(no one else was with him when he was on the phone). Before he could sign the amendments, he died. Is there anyway to make the amendments take effect?

Re: Death before verbal changes were made to will
Hello. This is complicated. Unless
there is written evidence of amendments to your relative's will, the Probate Court will not disturb
the present will. Will be happy to
discuss this further and in more detail.
