Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Ohio
Last Will And Testament Documents
These legal forms (Wills, Etc.), do they
not need to be filed with an attorney's
office or the courthouse to really be
legal after you are finished filling them
out?

Re: Last Will And Testament Documents
Once a will is executed, it is not required to be filed with the attorney or courthouse. Your heirs must present the original will after your death so it must be kept in a safe place. This is the reason individuals choose to keep them with their attorney or file them at the courthouse.

They do not have to be filled out by an attorney or the courthouse, but certain formalities must be met for them to be valid. Feel free to contact our office if you have questions.
