Signing, witnessing and notarizing online

Florida permits remote online notarization and electronic wills, subject to statutory requirements. In plain terms: you can finish a legally executed estate plan without ever driving to an office.

What the session involves

A scheduled video session with a commissioned online notary. You verify your identity, the witnessing requirements are handled in the same session, and you sign. You finish with executed documents rather than a stack of paper and a to-do list.

What you need

Confirmed with you before the session is booked.

  • Valid government-issued photo ID
  • A device with a working camera and a stable connection
  • About thirty uninterrupted minutes

When in person is still the better call

Helping an older relative who will not use video. A family signing together. A signer whose capacity may later be questioned, where an in-person session and careful documentation is worth the trip.

Signing online, answered.

Is a remotely signed will really valid?

Florida law provides for electronic wills and remote online notarization, subject to specific requirements. Meeting those requirements is exactly what the session is designed around.

What if I am out of state when I sign?

Often workable. Tell us where you will be and we will confirm before scheduling.
