Self-proving Affidavit Form - Indiana

Although not a legal requirement, an Indiana Self-Proving Affidavit Form serves to reassure the courts that a will that is presented to them is in fact genuine and was signed in accordance with all local state laws. The form can be attached directly to the will or as an additional, correctly worded clause that can be included in the will that will outline the same information.

By creating an Indiana Self-Proving Affidavit, the time that the will is looked at in court will be significantly reduced meaning all heirs will obtain the inherited valuables much quicker. As the form requires witnesses, these witnesses will not need to be summoned to court to confirm authenticity – their signatures in the form will be enough. In Indiana, there needs to be two of them with no laws stipulating the need for notarization. Even though this is not needed on a legal basis, it would definitely be worth doing in order to eliminate any potential conflicts.
