Changing a Will without an Attorney

[wrmasylum]

What is the name of your state? Tennessee

My husband and I both had our wills done some years back. We have since made some changes as far as beneficary. What we did was cross out the old names, hand wrote the new names and then initialed and dated the changes. Is this legal?

Your wills are no longer valid.

You need to go to a lawyer and have new wills made.
