Maryland meeting recording consent law

Maryland requires the consent of all parties to record private communications.

The statute

Md. Code, Cts. & Jud. Proc. § 10-402

What makes it tricky

Consent must precede interception; a banner participants may not have seen is weak evidence of it.

What's at stake

Felony exposure plus civil damages.

The posture that always works

Capture an explicit consent decision from every participant before the meeting starts — whichever state they're in — and keep a tamper-evident record of it. That's what Overturo produces, and you can download a sample of the register format below.
