<div style="direction:ltr">DOL declined to endorse specific providers, but DocuSign, docverify, eSignLive, and WorldWideNotary are good places to start.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div style="direction:ltr">DOL does not have rules implementing the attorney exemption in RCW 42.45.180(2), so they will work on requirements for attorney record keeping. It does not appear to cover paralegals, so non-lawyer assistants will likely need their
own journals. Also there will be rulemaking about whether it is ethical for the law firm to retain a copy of the paralegals’ journals after they leave their employ. </div>

<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Hello Real Property Listserv,</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">As I am sure most of you are aware, the new rules for notaries are going into effect on July 1, 2018. There was a helpful summary of the main changes in our section’s newsletter, Summer 2017 edition, page 19.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I am planning to attend the rulemaking meeting this Thursday to get more clarity about the electronic notary process (e.g. I have clients overseas that would love to do an electronic notary, but this seems to conflict with the restriction
that my notary license only works inside Washington state). If anyone has specific questions about the implementation of new RCW 42.45 and WAC 308-30, I would be happy to take those to the DOL and report back. I’ve attached the agenda for reference. And if
some of you will also be attending, I will look forward to seeing you there.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Best,</p>
