The CT General Assembly passed a bill that states "... no person shall conduct a real estate closing unless such person has been admitted as an attorney in this state ...." According to the way that I read it (I am NOT an attorney!), only HELOCs are exempt.
YIKES!
You can see the whole bill at https://www.cga.ct.gov/2019/ACT/pa/pdf/2019PA-00088-R00SB-00320-PA.pdf
