Mississippi Estate Planning Rules
Creating a will in Mississippi comes with specific requirements. While My Last Word handles the heavy lifting, it's important to understand the local laws that protect your legacy.
Witness Requirements
Two credible witnesses
Probate Threshold
Estates under $75,000 (roughly, varies by banking statute) may qualify for simplified procedures.
Specific Laws You Should Know
Holographic Wills
Mississippi is very friendly to holographic wills. A will entirely written, dated, and signed in the testator's hand is valid without witnesses.
Spouse Share
In Mississippi, you cannot settle an estate without addressing the spouse's share. If disinherited, a spouse can renounce the will and take a child's share.
