In New South Wales, a notary public is a public official who is authorised to certify and authenticate documents for use both within and outside of Australia. However, their role in a will dispute is limited.

 In a Will dispute in New South Wales, a notary public may be involved in the following ways:

Witnessing the signing of the will: A notary public may be called upon to witness the signing of a will and certify that the testator signed the will in their presence.

Authenticating documents: A notary public may be asked to authenticate documents that are relevant to the will dispute, such as witness statements or affidavits.

Certifying the will: In some cases, a notary public may be asked to certify a copy of the will, particularly if the original will is lost or destroyed.

 It’s important to note that the role of a notary public in a will dispute is limited, and they cannot provide legal advice or representation in the dispute.
