Mexican testamentary and probate legal initiatives

Overview

In the State of Mexico, the Judicial Power (PJEdoMéx) has approved new administrative rules to digitize the process for obtaining reports on the existence or non-existence of wills. This online system allows applicants and lawyers to submit requests and proof of payment remotely, with results sent via email to reduce costs and delays in probate and intestate succession proceedings.

Nationwide, Mexico is also promoting legal certainty through initiatives like the ‘Mes del Testamento’ program. This program offers reduced costs for creating wills, with some notary offices providing a 50 percent discount. In regions such as Yucatán, specialized sessions for holographic wills are being organized to provide free advisory services to the public.
