If the Will is not properly executed, it will be invalid. In Pennsylvania, the Will is valid if in writing and signed at the end. Witnesses are NOT required unless the signature is an X. These are the minimal legal requirements. But, you want to go further.
The drafter of your Will, ie. your attorney, should be present at the execution to make sure all goes well. It is also very wise to have witnesses (2) and a notary. With all of these formalities, your Will can with stand challenges applicable to improper execution.
