Who Can Obtain a Living Person’s Will in Maryland?

In Maryland if the Will has been filed with the Register of Wills county office (or city office if in Baltimore) only the testator—the person who created the Will–or someone who has written permission signed by the testator can withdraw a Will from safekeeping. Proper identification is required by the clerks in the Register of Wills and the written permission should be in the form of a notarized release signed by the testator or a power of attorney that has sufficient powers to cover the action requested.
