WRITING ON THE WILL

DID YOUR RELATIVE HAVE A WILL EXECUTED AND THEN SOMETIME THEREAFTER WRITE ON IT - AS IF SHE OR HE WANTED TO CHANGE SOME THINGS BUT DID NOT HAVE TIME TO CALL THE ATTORNEY OR EXECUTE ANOTHER WILL? If yes, the Will can still be admitted to probate but some investigation must be done. If the changes were made and they were made not at the time of execution or in the presence of the witnesses, then the changes or writings are ignored and the original print of thw Will controls. One would get affidavits from the witnesses and attorney surrounding that issue. It happens often.
