Online Webinar
Estate Planning in the Digital Age; Florida's New Law on Electronic Legal Documents
Registration Rate: $125
The “Hot Topics in Elder Law” webinar will discuss the timely topic of Florida's new law on Electronic Legal Documents, as the Governor of Florida has signed House Bill 409, an act relating to electronic legal documents. The new law provides for electronic wills, electronic durable powers of attorney, and further provides that these and other electronic legal documents may be executed with a remote notary and remote witnesses appearing by videoconference. How exactly will all of this work? Florida attorneys need to know the ins and outs of the Electronic Legal Documents law and what it means for their clients and their practices.
Please join Ben Diamond, St. Petersburg attorney and Florida State Representative, for a review of the key provisions of the law and a discussion of the many issues and questions it presents.
