In Illinois, holographic wills are not recognized as legally valid. To be valid, a will in Illinois must be typed or printed, signed by the testator (the person making the will) and witnessed by at least two competent witnesses who also sign the will in the presence of each other and the testator. It is highly recommended to consult with an estate planning attorney to ensure your will meets all legal requirements in Illinois.
