FAQ
You can write a list of who should receive what item. If your will references the list, it will be enforceable. Be careful about how you describe each item so that there is no confusion. Unlike your will, this list can be if you like, and you can change it without having to go back and redo your will.
The list is usually incorporated by reference into a Will or a Trust, such as: I may leave a list that is attached to this Will, and if I do so, I direct that such list be treated as a part of this Will and that that the tangible personal property identified on that list be distributed to the designated individuals.
You can make your own will in Washington State. You are not required to use an attorney to draft a will. However, because a will is a legal document, you want to create a will that the court will accept. Consider using a state-specific will-making service to make sure you make a valid will.
Per stirpes. One of the simplest strategies for asset distribution among heirs, this method requires that the estate be divided equally among each branch of the family. So, if an heir (a child) should pass away before the parents, their share would be passed along in equal shares to their heirs (the grandchildren).
Personal property such as vehicles, jewelry, furniture, and collectibles can also be designated in a will. Additionally, financial assets like bank accounts, investments, retirement accounts, and life insurance policies can be specified in a will.
Personal possessions should not be distributed before probate is completed, as they are part of the estate that must be inventoried and appraised. Distributing items prematurely could lead to legal disputes, especially if they are intended for specific beneficiaries.
A Will that is written in the hand of the Testator should be valid in Washington AS LONG AS IT IS WITNESSED.
You normally need not get very specific, unless an object is particularly valuable. It is enough to list the location of the property: "all household furnishings and possessions in the apartment at 55 Drury Lane."
No, in Washington, you do not need to notarize your will to make it legal. However, Washington allows you to make your will "self-proving" and you'll need to go to a notary if you want to do that. A self-proving will speeds up probate because the court can accept the will without contacting the witnesses who signed it.
