Electronic legal communication and the associated paperless communication between notaries and courts have become part of everyday notarial practice. With the introduction of electronic certification, the electronic commercial register, and the implementation of electronic legal communication in land registry matters, the legislator has set the course for the future. The legal and technical questions arising from this were the subject of the 3rd Dresden Forum on Notarial Law held on June 11, 2010. This volume contains contributions from prominent speakers from that day on the following topics: Consumer protection by notaries over time - requirements for the consumer-protective quality of notarial activities in the age of electronic legal communication (Lüke), electronic legal communication and citizen-friendly justice (Bernhardt), the introduction of electronic legal communication in land registry matters in the Free State of Saxony (Riedel), the beginning of a stormy love?
