Frequently Asked Questions
What is a notary?
Our team provides notary services and many people use notaries every day, but for individuals the concept of notarizing a document might not be a familiar one. Put simply, a notary is a person with a special license to verify someone’s identity and witness them sign a document, then put a stamp of approval on the signature. Essentially, a notary ensures a signature is legitimate and will hold up in the event of legal action.
On what occasions is a notary necessary?
Notaries play an important role in real estate transactions, the execution of legal documents, governmental documentation, and many other common instances. Individuals might need a notary for an apartment lease, real estate loan, insurance policy document, or other similar documents.
How does the notary process work?
It’s our goal to make the notary process easy for our clients, whether we’re handling a large case for a big company or one document for an individual. When you have a document notarized, you will have to present a form of identification to our team member, who will then verify it. Once verified, you will sign the document while our team member looks on, and then they will stamp the document with their official seal.

Where can I have my documents notarized?
Traditionally, people had to go to a public notary office, a bank, or other business where a notary was employed. This could present an inconvenience, and we set out to find a better way to help people get their documents notarized. We offer mobile notary services, where a member of our team can come to you on your schedule and witness your signature. We also use new technology to verify identities online, which allows us to offer online notary services as well.
What if I don’t understand what I am signing?
A common problem for individuals in need of notary services is a lack of understanding of the documents they’re signing. We employ licensed document assistants who have undergone training on how to interpret legal documents and they can help provide feedback on the documents before you sign them.
