  • There must be evidence that the testator actually created the will, which can be proved through the use of witnesses, handwriting experts, or other methods.
  • The testator must have had the intellectual capacity to write the will, although there is a presumption that a testator had such capacity unless there is evidence to the contrary.
  • The testator must be expressing a wish to direct the distribution of his estate to beneficiaries.
