How signing works in Mississippi
Signing your will
- Gather two adult witnesses. They should not be people named in your will.
- Sign your will while both witnesses watch.
- Each witness signs while you watch.
- You may also sign a short sworn form before a notary. It helps the court accept the will later.
- Keep the original somewhere safe.
Mississippi does not allow electronic wills. You print your will and sign it in ink.
How to sign your advance health-care directive
