We will draft and register your Will
Legal Requirement: In India, registering a will is not mandatory by law. However, registration can add an extra layer of authenticity and credibility to the document, making it less susceptible to challenges or disputes in the future.
Procedure: To register a will, the testator (the person making the will) must visit the sub-registrar's office with two witnesses. The testator must present a copy of the will along with the original for registration. The witnesses need to sign the will in the presence of the registrar.
Validity: A registered will is considered legally valid, provided it meets all the necessary legal requirements, such as being made voluntarily, without coercion, and with soundness of mind.
Storage and Retrieval: Once registered, the will is stored in the registrar's office. Certified copies can be obtained upon request by the testator or their authorized representative.
Advantages: Registering a will can streamline the probate process after the testator's demise, as it provides a publicly accessible record of the document, reducing the likelihood of disputes among heirs and beneficiaries. Additionally, it offers a level of protection against fraud or tampering.
