That information extract was referred to in the case as Rita’s “online Will”. \u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Ch3>\u003Cstrong>What does the law say? \u003C\u002Fstrong>\u003C\u002Fh3>\n\u003Cp dir=\"ltr\">For a Will to be valid, it must be signed by the Will-maker, and witnessed by two independent adult witnesses. \u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp dir=\"ltr\">Where a Will doesn’t meet these requirements, it is known as an ‘informal Will.’ The law in NSW allows the Court to make an order upholding the validity of an informal Will. \u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp dir=\"ltr\">The Court will only uphold the validity of an informal Will if it can be proven that the deceased person intended the informal Will to immediately operate with nothing more as their last Will and Testament. \u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp dir=\"ltr\">Rita’s online Will, being unsigned, did not meet the normal requirement for validity under law. The executor appointed under Rita’s Will was seeking special permission from the Court to approve the informal Will as a valid Will. \u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Ch3>\u003Cstrong>What did the Court decide? \u003C\u002Fstrong>\u003C\u002Fh3>\n\u003Cp dir=\"ltr\">The Court found that the informal Will should be upheld as a valid Will, owing to the extensive evidence put before the Court about Rita’s intention in making the online document. \u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp dir=\"ltr\">In finding it was a valid Will, the Court referred to: \u003Cbr \u002F>\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cul>\u003Cli dir=\"ltr\">\u003Cp dir=\"ltr\">The fact that the key elements required for a Will were present, including that the online Will was complete in its terms, that the gifts made grammatical sense and that the wishes were clear;\u003C\u002Fp>\u003C\u002Fli>\u003Cli dir=\"ltr\">\u003Cp dir=\"ltr\">The circumstances surrounding the making of the Will, including the proximity of preparing the Will to Rita’s passing (writing the Will the day before her passing);\u003C\u002Fp>\u003C\u002Fli>\u003Cli dir=\"ltr\">\u003Cp dir=\"ltr\">The communication Rita had with her lawyer, and the fact that she referred to her submission as “my Will”;\u003C\u002Fp>\u003C\u002Fli>\u003Cli dir=\"ltr\">\u003Cp dir=\"ltr\">The communication Rita had with the Safewill chat platform, and the fact that she expressed a wish for the Will to be binding; \u003C\u002Fp>\u003C\u002Fli>\u003Cli dir=\"ltr\">\u003Cp dir=\"ltr\">The unsent text message Rita prepared to her sister about “my Will I had made this morning.”\u003C\u002Fp>\u003C\u002Fli>\u003C\u002Ful>\n\u003Ch3>\u003Cstrong>What does this mean for Online Wills moving forward? \u003C\u002Fstrong>\u003C\u002Fh3>\n\u003Cp dir=\"ltr\">This was the first case in any Australian Supreme Court to deal with the treatment of Wills made via an online will-writing platform. \u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp dir=\"ltr\">The case acknowledged the important role that technology plays in our community, and in the law, with the Judge stating that “digital communication has become an essential part of the social and economic fabric of society.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp dir=\"ltr\">The decision of the Court in this instance confirms that it is possible for wills to be validly written online, with specific reference made to the Safewill Will flow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp dir=\"ltr\">Further, the decision of the Court demonstrates that it is possible for online submissions for Wills to be binding, even if the Will document is not signed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp dir=\"ltr\">However, the case \u003Cstrong>does not\u003C\u002Fstrong> provide a general rule that all Will submissions are binding, even when they are not properly signed. That would need to be determined on a case-by-case basis depending on the facts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp dir=\"ltr\">When making a Will online, care should be taken to ensure that the document is signed properly in accordance with the law in Australia. This will avoid complications in admitting the document to Probate, and will make the administration of the estate far less stressful and costly for the family. \u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\u003Cbr \u002F>\u003C\u002Fp>",[169],{"__typename":170,"id":171,"title":172},"blogTopics_Category","15463","Wills",{"__typename":174,"byline":175,"firstName":176,"fullName":177,"id":178,"photo":179,"role":188},"User","\u003Cp>Isabelle holds a \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fau.linkedin.com\u002Fin\u002Fisabellemarcarian\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Bachelor of Laws and Finance with First Class Honours from Macquarie University\u003C\u002Fa>.
