PAUL A. BONIN, Judge.
| ¡According to the petition in this legal malpractice case, the late Ann Hamm Diaz engaged Lance Licciardi, an attorney, to notarize her last will and testament, which she executed on October 31, 2006. Following her death, two of the named legatees, Louis Diaz, Jr. and Tristan Diaz, probated the notarial testament only to have the probate annulled because the attestation clause as required by La. Civil Code art. 1577 was legally insufficient. On Monday, *794November 2, 2009, the named legatees fax-filed this action for legal malpractice against the attorney and his law firm.1
