Forging estate documents is a very unethical and illegal undertaking, enabling the forger to steal hundreds of thousands of dollars, and potentially millions of dollars, from the estate of a deceased or incompetent person. As such, the incentive for such illegality can be very high and the challenges to disproving the estate forgery can be significant, including but not limited to:

● the provider of the estate is either dead or mentally incapacitated to the point of insanity

● the writing of the provider of the estate is exceedingly difficult to compare due to their age, physical deterioration and/or lack of senility

● the forger has deceived others into his nefarious plan

The veracity of handwriting can be brought into serious question, given that handwriting analyses not only lead to the discovery of forgeries, but also to Dementia, Alzheimer's and other forms of mental incompetence at the time the will of power of attorney was executed.
