The "Uniform Electronic Wills Act"; authorizes electronic wills.

This proposed New Jersey bill would allow residents to create legally valid wills using electronic means, such as online platforms or digital signatures. It requires electronic wills to be signed with clear intent, witnessed by two people (in person or via video call), or notarized, and must follow specific formatting rules. The law would treat electronic wills as fully equivalent to paper wills for inheritance purposes, ensuring they hold up in court. It directly affects New Jersey residents making estate plans, modernizing will execution while maintaining legal safeguards.
