Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a will in Idaho?

Without a will, Idaho's intestacy laws determine how your assets are distributed - which may not align with your wishes. A will lets you name guardians for minor children, designate who receives your property, and appoint a personal representative to manage your estate. Having a valid will simplifies the probate process for your family.

What are the requirements for a valid will in Idaho?

In Idaho, a will must be in writing, signed by the testator (the person making the will), and signed by at least two witnesses who observed the testator sign. Idaho also recognizes holographic (handwritten) wills if the material provisions and signature are in the testator's handwriting, though witnesses are not required for holographic wills.

How often should I update my will?

You should review your will after any major life event - marriage, divorce, birth of a child, death of a beneficiary, significant changes in assets, or relocation to a different state. Even without major changes, reviewing your will every three to five years ensures it still reflects your intentions.
