AFTER YOU'VE WRITTEN YOUR WILL
Who should act as a witness to my will?
Who should act as a witness to my will?
Updated over a week ago

Anyone, who you know and trust, and who is 14 years of age or older and who at the time that they witness the will is competent to give evidence in court. A beneficiary (or a beneficiaries spouse) to a will should not sign as a witness, because they will then be disqualified from receiving any benefit from that will (a beneficiary to a will can however act as the appointed executor of that will).
