Description
What is a will? A sample of this document will be presented to your attention below.
A will is a legally significant paper dividing the property of the deceased between the heirs at the behest of the owner. That is, with the help of a testament document, a citizen during life informs whom, what, and in what shares he wants to transfer after his death. Very comfortably.
This paper helps to avoid inheritance by law. The circle of persons of the heirs is determined by the testator. He dictates the rules for the division of his property after death.
Advantages and disadvantages
A competently designed and executed testament will has many advantages. There are no shortcomings in such a document. They appear if a citizen has not taken into account all the features of paperwork.
Among the advantages of the will are:
- the ability to independently determine the circle of heirs;
- the right to indicate shares in property and principles for the division of property between all recipients;
- the ability to make changes to the document if necessary;
- property rights to property from the testator are not lost - heirs can receive material benefits only after the death of the previous owner.
Unfortunately, often citizens make up competent and correct samples of wills, but some aspects are not taken into account when they are drawn up. This leads to some flaws in the document.
Among them are:
- the possibility of appeal by the heirs through the court;
- the need to account for heirs with mandatory shares in the inheritance in the preparation of the will.
That's all. What you need to remember about the preparation and execution of the will? What does a competent sample of this paper look like?
Basic spelling rules
Making a will is not a difficult process, especially considering all the nuances of this procedure. There are not many of them. Here are some guidelines to keep in mind when writing a testament:
- the document is written only by hand in the presence of several witnesses;
- all heirs and shares in the property put by him must be registered in the will;
- during the creation of the mentioned paper you will have to follow the rules of conducting business correspondence;
- at the time of the execution of the will, the citizen must be of full legal age and legal capacity;

- paperwork is carried out by a notary.
All these rules will help to draw up a document. And the correct sample of the will can facilitate the task. Otherwise, the documentation will be refused.
Help for the operation
Documents for the will are prepared by the testator in advance. A full package of securities is determined by property transferred in the order of succession. Therefore, we consider the most common option - a testament to the apartment.
In this case, the testament will require:
- passport of a citizen;
- a sample of a testament written by hand at witnesses;
- certificates on the mental health of a citizen;
- USRN statements on property;
- title papers on the transferred property;
- passports (preferably) and personal data of the heirs;
- certificates of marriage / divorce / birth of children (recommended);
