Self-proving Affidavit Form - South Carolina

Using a South Carolina Self-Proving Affidavit Form is advantageous for those individuals that want to write up a will as it aims to validate the legitimacy of the will. It will validate the fact that the will was signed voluntarily (without any pressure) and that the will itself is real. The importance of this should not be forgotten as without this validation, courts will aim to look at the will in greater detail which in turn will lead to an elongation of the probate process. The longer the process goes on for, the longer the heirs will need to wait before they collect their assets.

A South Carolina Self-Proving Affidavit requires notarization from a notary public and at least one person to act as a witness. By signing the document, a witness also excuses themselves from going to the court to testify as it usually required. The individual who initially created the will needs to sign in front of both of these individuals to ensure that the document is accepted.
