What does remote witnessing mean for the future of Electronic Wills — and does it really make them more vulnerable to fraud, undue influence or capacity concerns?
In this episode, we explore the Law Commission’s proposals for Electronic Wills and remote witnessing, looking at the safeguards that could make digital execution not just as secure as paper, but potentially safer. We discuss identity verification, the lessons from Patel v Patel, undue influence, testamentary capacity and the evidential benefits of a reliable digital audit trail.
Could Electronic Wills ultimately strengthen the safeguards around Will-making?
