Rajiv Nagaich recommended doing it on Zoom, (which is recorded), the client looks at a copy of the will and directs the attorney to sign on his behalf, which is then witnessed and notarized in the presence of the (attorney) signer. The problem with the RON act is that, under WA law, Wills still require line of sight for witnesses. I feel it may be a squishy argument to use Zoom witnesses, although if that's the best case (or only) option, then that's what you would have to do. </div><div><br></div><div>My two cents!</div><div><i style="font-family:"Times New Roman",serif;font-size:12pt"><span style="font-family:Cambria,serif"><font size="4"><br></font></span></i></div><div><i style="font-family:"Times New Roman",serif;font-size:12pt"><span style="font-family:Cambria,serif"><font size="4">Kira M.

at the revised RCW 42.45 and WAC 308-30 the notary must be commissioned with an electronic endorsement here in WA. My question is if a person signs in front of a RON notary, does the signer mails his or her signed originals to marry up with the RON’s certificate
for a complete document? Or will the Ron expect to mail his or her certificate to the signer to marry up with the original signed document? Not sure what other procedures people have thought about. </span><u></u><u></u></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12pt;color:black">One thing I have recently realized (please correct me if I'm wrong) is that for RON to work, you need not have a Washington notary involved. It seems to me that all our clients need to do right
now to execute a power of attorney or deed, etc., is to go online to one of these companies like NotaryCam or Safedocs (that the DOL listed) and have them notarize the document (for a fee of around $25). All their RON notaries for that self-serve option are
commissioned in Virginia, which was the first state to authorize RON in 2012. Full faith and credit laws are already existing in most of the states regarding notaries and the federal government apparently is enacting one for RON in the next few days that is
nationwide. At least this is what I heard from a webinar by NotaryCam today.</span><u></u><u></u></p>
