Electronic Wills Business Development

COVID-19 pandemic and safe distancing protocols set by government officials mean in-person witnessing and execution of various legal and “personal planning” documents (Wills, Powers of Attorney, Health Agreements) have been challenged, which directly reduced our revenue. A direct result of the state of emergency declaration (Emergency Program Act) for all of British Columbia, are two ministerial orders (M162 and M161) that allow for remote witnessing (“in the electronic presence”) by a Notary Public for Wills, Powers of Attorney and Health Representation Agreements.
