Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Illinois
Will
We have found an addendum to a will. It is signed but not witnessed. Do we need to turn this over to lawyer or is this just suggestions of things to be done. It sounds like it.

Re: Will
In Illinois, an addendum to a Will is called a Codicil. It must be witnesses by at least 2 persons in addition to being signed by the testator.
It appears that the document you have is not valid.
