Isn a hand written will just as good in Texas?
No! A fully hand written will may be valid to probate, but it may contain holes and must have people testify at the probate that the signature and writing are “authentic”. These witnesses cannot be any one who is a beneficiary of the hand written will. It is easy to contest and will cause your heirs un-necessary expense, stress and grief. You may also not have happen what you planned. A self-proving Last Will & Testament is far superior to a hand written will.
