What is a self-proving will in Nevada and why do I need one?

A self-proving will in Nevada is a will that includes a notarized affidavit signed by the testator and witnesses, confirming the will's proper execution. This eliminates the need for witnesses to testify in probate court, speeds up estate settlement, and provides stronger protection against challenges. Self-proving wills are especially important for complex estates, elderly testators, or families with potential conflict. Nevada law allows this streamlined probate process when proper notarization procedures are followed.
