Last will and testaments-the type you buy where you fill in the blanks yourself-?

Question

Do you have to type in the blanks or is handwriting them in o.k?

Need to know if one is more legally binding than the other. Thanks for any serious responses!

Answer 1

This link  http://www.wikihow.com/Write-Your-Own-La... explains how to make a will legal, writing is fine though, the important things are witnesses, legal age of you and the witnesses and whether you need to have it notarised in your state,

Answer 2

As long as it is witnessed and notarized and made while of sound mind it can be as good as any drawn by a lawyer. Typing always looks more official but not required.

You might even find that form in Microsoft Office or Word.
