Yes, in Maryland, a durable power of attorney must be signed in the presence of two witnesses. The witnesses must be at least 18 years old and cannot be named as agents or have any financial interest in the document. Additionally, the document should also be notarized to ensure its validity and strengthen its legal standing.
