Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Utah

My mom and I wrote her will back in 2008.... and she got married again in 2009... My sister had her do a prenuptial and rewrote the will in 2009... she got divorced after less than a year.... and she wants the will back to the first one... that was written in 2008... can I just wright a addendum to the 2008 will that reinstates it?

That would be unwise. Where there is the possibility of more than one will, there should be a new will that specifically refers to the former wills, and disavows them. All copies of the former wills must be destroyed.

You may call for a free consultation. Your mother may need more than a will.
