What Is Will & Trust Notarization?

Notarization adds a layer of authentication that protects your estate plans.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does Missouri require wills to be notarized?
No, but a self-proving affidavit (which is notarized) can make probate easier by eliminating the need for witnesses to testify in court.
Can you serve as a witness for my will?
We can provide notarization services, but you'll need to bring your own witnesses. Missouri requires two witnesses for wills.
Do I need to bring my trust document to your office?
Yes, bring the original trust document that needs to be notarized. Do not sign it beforehand.
Can you notarize a will if I'm updating it?
We can notarize codicils (will amendments) or new self-proving affidavits. We recommend consulting an estate attorney for major changes.
