An Alaska last will and testament is a legal document that ensures a person’s personal and real property will be distributed in the manner they desire after death. A testator can name the intended beneficiaries on the will, such as family members, friends, or others with whom they wish to leave all or a portion of their property. The testator must create the document while they are of sound mind and possess physical and mental competence.
