LEGISLATIVE UPDATE: Effect of the New Electronic Execution of Wills Law

As mentioned in our previous post, the Maryland legislature enacted a law that allows for electronic execution of Wills.  While this law is technically in effect, we have not yet found a cost-effective way to implement this for our clients.  While we continue to offer virtual meetings to our clients, for the time being, estate planning documents prepared by our firm must be signed in person.  We will continue to monitor and search for cost effective methods to offer remote execution to our clients.  Stay tuned.
