A codicil is a document used to change one or more provisions of a will as an alternative to preparing a new will. The codicil can be used to make minor deletions or additions to the original Will. If substantial and/or numerous changes will be made to the original Will, it is recommended that a new will be prepared instead of a codicil. The codicil provided by this program is a simple but flexible document that provides a variety of optional paragraphs. If your situation presents unusual circumstances, or if you have any legal questions, it is advisable to consult with a lawyer. |
