[WSBAPT] Request for Form ASAP :-)

I believe that there is case law that states a notarization is not invalid without the seal as long as the notary has signed properly and the date that their appointment or commission expires appears and it is not on or before the date of notarization.  

This might be another route to take.  You might even be able to contact the notary to correct it.

I have a client coming in one hour. She has a Will that was signed by two witnesses but the notary forgot to stamp it. The "penalty of perjury" language is not there. She does not want to redo the Will but she does know the witnesses- they are close friends she sees often.
 
I have never had to prove a Will- every probate I have done has had adequate witness affidavits one way or the other. Does anyone have the affidavit that witnesses sign after the fact to prove a Will? Can you email it to me?
