Attestation Clause

An attestation clause is a provision at the end of a Will that sets out the legal requirements of the Will and says those requirements have been met. By signing the attestation clause, a person is stating and confirming that everything within the clause is true.

For example:

This instrument, consisting of 7 pages, including the Attestation and Proof of Will, was on the date hereof declared by JOHN SMITH to be his Last Will and Testament and he either himself signed the Last Will and Testament at the end thereof or acknowledged his signature already made in the presence of us who, at his request and in his presence, have subscribed our names as witnesses hereto.
