Re:  Rule 24f-2 Notice for Maxim Series Account
     File No. 811-3972

Gentlemen:

     This letter is furnished as the requisite opinion of counsel described 
in paragraph (b)(1)(v) of Rule
24f-2.

     I am providing this opinion of counsel in my capacity of Assistant 
Counsel and Assistant Secretary
of Great-West Life and Annuity Insurance Company, and act in such capacity in
 legal matters concerning
its separate account, Maxim Series Account.  In so acting, I have made such 
examination of the law,
records and documents as in my judgment are necessary or appropriate to 
enable me to render the
opinion expressed below.

     I am of the opinion with respect to the aforesaid securities, which are 
the securities the registration
of which is made definitive in number by the Rule 24f-2 Notice that this 
opinion accompanies, that the
securities were legally issued, fully paid and non-assessable.

                                        Sincerely,

                                        /s/ Beverly A. Byrne

                                        Beverly A. Byrne
