Here is a question for you: “What makes a will valid in the state of Florida?” There are several requirements as follows:
- You have to be 18 years of age or over. Or, you can be a minor as long as you were emancipated by the courts;
- The document needs to be in writing;
- The will needs to be witnessed by two witnesses (not one, but two witnesses); and
- The person that is creating the will needs to sign the document at the end.
