contesting a will
How long do you have in Az to contest a will? If 2 or 3 words are misspelled in the will can that invalidate it?

Re: contesting a will
The time that you have to contest a Will depends upon when you receive notice of the probate and whether it is an informal or formal probate or if it is a small estate where an affidavit is filed. Misspellings will not invalidate a Will, the court will try to carry out the wishes of the Testator.
