Pennsylvania Opens Doors to E-Notarized Probate Filings

August 6, 2025 — Legal Update for Pennsylvania Firms

At the recent 98th Annual Conference for the Register of Wills and Orphans’ Court, the Statewide Solicitor formally recommended that Pennsylvania begin accepting e-notarized post-mortem documents into probate.

This includes critical filings like:

  • Renunciations
  • Oaths
  • Releases
  • Estate Settlement Agreements
  • Disclaimers
