What is a holographic last will and testament?
Some states allow you to hand write your Last Will and Testament. However, state law can be very particular with respect to holographic Wills; for example, California requires that all material provisions be written entirely by hand, and that the Will must be signed by the person making the Will. Sometimes a holographic Will is better than no Will at all, sometimes it is not. If the holographic Will creates an ambiguity or an unintended result, then it would have been better to have no Will at all.
