Electronic Documents and Remote Signings

Overview


The Illinois legislature passed and Governor Pritzker is expected to sign the Electronic Wills and Remote Witnesses Act (the “Wills Act”) into law. Illinois law may soon permit both remote witnessing of Wills and electronic Wills.

In this webinar, Elise McGee will join a panel of experts to discuss procedures for signing a will under the Act including assembling a signed paper will with remote witnesses and creating certified paper copies of an electronic will. The session will also touch on issues of storage and maintenance.
