A Utah last will and testament is a binding legal instrument describing how a person wants their property to be distributed after their death. The person who creates a will is known as the testator, while the people (or organizations) who receive property according to the will are called beneficiaries. Without a will, a decedent’s property is subject to the state’s intestate succession rules.
Laws – Title 75 (Utah Uniform Probate Code)
Signing Requirements (§ 75-2-502) – To be valid, a will must be in writing and signed by the testator. Two people who witnessed the testator signing must also sign the will, and do so within a reasonable time of seeing the testator sign.
