Re: legality

Thank you for your question. My first question for you is did the person who had the stroke die? A written, signed, dated letter generally will not constitute a valid will unless it has been witnessed by two people? Was it in fact witnessed? If the individual did not die, what type of property were they trying to convey?? Do you have a copy of the letter? Sorry for all the quesdtions, but there are a lot of moving parts here and I want to get it correct. Feel free to email me on my firm email: [email protected]

thanks,
