Are Holographic Wills Legal in Illinois?

A holographic will is one in which the creator, known as the testator, creates the will entirely in his own handwriting without getting it signed or witnessed by others. The state of Illinois does not recognize the validity of holographic wills or any other will that does not meet the state’s minimum requirements for validity. Wills are important legal documents, and you should always seek the advice of a licensed Illinois attorney if you need legal advice about the state’s will laws.
