Videotaped Will
Execution Ceremony
In the event of a contested will, a videotaped reading of the will can establish the mental
condition of the testator at the time the will was signed.
A properly prepared videotape of the will execution
ceremony can provide indispensable evidence of several key factors. Among these:
- Due execution of the will - Testamentary capacity - Testamentary intent - The contents of the will - Lack of undue
influence or fraud - To assist in will interpretation and construction
Videotaping of a will execution
ceremony should be performed by a professional with the proper training and equipment to produce an accurate record of the
reading of the will. A professional videographer also serves as a disinterested third party in the proceedings.
Other Estate Planning Services:
Video Home Inventory – Establish the general nature and extent of
your client's estate with a Video Home Inventory, a video documentation of the testator's property as described in the will.
Changes in the originally videotaped will – If the testator desires to make changes, have the codicil to the
will videotaped to ensure testamentary capacity and intent are documented as in in the original will.

brochure” - Fully represent pain and suffering to defense and insurance company - Complete, concise summation
of a case in a single convincing presentation
