The archaic laws of Roman law recognize the testament as a formal and legal act. The word testament is believed to have a basis in the Latin voice which means “witness”. In this way, the testament becomes not only an expression of the testator last wishes, but also his physical witness. The open notarial will is the only instrument by which we leave documented, who will be the beneficiaries of our heritage once we die. In the past, however, this was not the case. It is possible to make a valid will in full confinement and without going to the notary. However, this testament must meet legally established requirements for its effectiveness.
