Last Wills and Testaments in Florida
Florida wills are governed by the Florida Probate Code. Florida has exceptionally strict execution rules. Every will must be in writing, signed by the testator, and signed by at least two witnesses in the presence of the testator and of each other (Fla. Stat. § 732.502).
**Holographic (handwritten) wills are NOT recognized in Florida**, even if they were legally executed in another state. All wills must be witnessed in accordance with Florida law to be valid.
