Is a Will of a spouse void upon separation of the parties?
Yes
No
No. When there is a valid Will by one of the spouses or both, parties who separate but are not yet divorced, this does not change the status of the Will or its validity. It is necessary that the spouse who separate review his or her existing will to determine whether it is still reflecting of his or her wishes upon the separation of the spouses
