EXECUTION OF DOCUMENTS

Can I execute my documents electronically?

Testators can execute an electronic will under the Uniform Electronic Wills Act (UEWA), and probate courts can give legal effect to electronic wills.

Currently, ten American states allow testators to create formalized wills purely on electronic devices without ever converting to paper. While four states follow the Uniform Electronic Wills Act (Oregon, Utah, Colorado and North Dakota), six others have passed their non-uniform e-wills laws (Arizona, Florida, Illinois, Indiana, Maryland, Nevada and Washington). The legislative process is fast-moving, so more bills are in the works.

There are, however, only two states that expressly prohibit testators from executing e-wills today, New Hampshire and Oregon. Those two states expressly prohibit electronic wills. The other 38 states are unclear.
