• Resumen

  • The provisions on the form of a will are a group of those legal solutions which are generally imperative in a given system. In many cases, the range of solutions that a potential testator may choose is traditional and does not take into account the needs of society, especially in the world of new technologies. Failure to comply with the provisions on the form of a will traditionally leads to the invalidity of the will. In the text, the author presents the basic models related to this and wonders about the possible direction of evolution of the regulations in this area.
