Where can one find a will?

It would be nice to have URLs indicating how one can get hold of a person' will

It sounds like you need a lawyer. A will is not like a title to a car - the government does not require filing for the will to be valid and enforceable. In some jurisdictions, there are issues with keeping copies of wills. The decedent should keep the original in safekeeping. Sometimes this means leaving it with a trustee. To make an answer short, the decedent should have made arrangements for it to be found. If not, then some difficulties arise in ascertaining the decedent's intent. --Colobikeguy (talk) 07:40, 28 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Jurisdictional differences

Here in the US there are jurisdictional differences. Also, I would like to hyperlink to US sources. I thought I did this before, but will do again. If there are hyperlinks on the subject page, please leave them.

Living overseas

I'd like to see some reference relating to how wills need to address complications of living overseas, and cross border relationships. For example as a Brit married to a Malaysian I may never return to the UK, but may be subject to inheritance tax and my spouse will not be entitled to tax relief. I am not alone in this respect. It would be good to have a section covering how individual states address these matters, and whether wills can address all the major issues that arise.
