Estate Planning Documents

Wills, powers of attorney and advance directives — witnessed and sealed where you live

In Short

An estate plan that is signed wrong is a gift to future litigators. Ronit witnesses and notarizes the documents families actually sign — last wills, trust papers, durable financial powers of attorney, healthcare powers of attorney and advance directives — in living rooms, attorneys' offices, hospital rooms and care facilities across Maryland, at an unhurried pace, with witnesses lined up in advance whenever a document calls for them.

The limit of the role is stated up front, in plain language: Ronit is a notary, not a lawyer. She cannot draft your will or tell you which powers to grant — that advice belongs to your attorney, or to you if you prepared the papers yourself. Her guarantee covers the ceremony of signing: identity proven, signers willing and aware of what they are signing, witnesses properly placed, and a notarial certificate without a flaw in it.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can Ronit write my will or power of attorney?

No — Maryland notaries are barred from drafting legal documents and from giving legal advice. Bring papers prepared by your lawyer, or reputable forms you have completed yourself, and the witnessing and notarization will be handled so the execution is sound.

Will I need witnesses on top of a notary?

Quite possibly. A Maryland will, for instance, is signed before two witnesses, and several powers of attorney call for witnesses alongside the notarization. Name your documents when you book and the right people will be in the room.

Can a healthcare directive be signed at a hospital bedside?

Yes — bedside execution of directives is everyday work here, arranged with family and ward staff. The one condition is legal, not medical: the signer must be able to communicate an understanding of the document and a wish to sign it. If that is uncertain, call first for an honest conversation about the options.
