This interactive legal document enables you to generate a codicil to a simple Will . A codicil is sort of a legal 'P.S.' to a Will. You can revoke a clause in your Will and then substitute a new clause, or simply add a new provision (such as a new gift of an item of property). A codicil must be executed with all of the formalities of a Will. It must be typed or computer printed, then dated and signed by you in front of three witnesses. Codicils can be sensibly used to make limited changes to a Will, for example, when you want to change who receives one item.

To protect your loved ones. Making a will is one of the only ways to be certain that your lifetime's work and assets, built up over the years, are passed on to the people you want. It provides security for your family and those you are respo. The only way you can change a will is by making an official alteration called a codicil. You must sign a codicil and get it witnessed in the same way as witnessing a will. There’s no limit on how.
