How signing works in Indiana

Signing your will

  1. Gather two adult witnesses. They should not be people named in your will.
  2. Tell both witnesses that this paper is your will.
  3. Sign your will while both witnesses watch.
  4. Each witness signs while you and the other witness watch.
  5. If you want, you and your witnesses can sign one more short form. It is called a self-proving clause. It helps the court accept your will later.
  6. Keep the original somewhere safe.

Indiana has an electronic will law. We still prepare a will you print and sign in ink.

Remote online notarization where Indiana allows it, never for wills.

How to sign your healthcare directive
  1. Choose how you will sign. You can sign with two witnesses or a notary.
  2. If you use witnesses, sign while both watch. Then each witness signs. At least one witness cannot be your spouse or a relative.
  3. If you use a notary, sign in front of the notary, in person or online.
  4. Keep the original somewhere safe. Share a copy with your doctor.
