🖊️ 1. What do I need to bring for a notarization?
Please bring the document that needs to be notarized and a valid, acceptable form of identification. Your document should be complete before the notarization, and you should not sign it in advance unless instructed to do so.
I will verify your identity and complete the appropriate notarial act based on the document and the notarial certificate provided.
🖊️ 2. Do I need to make an appointment?
Appointments are recommended so I can make sure I have time available for your notarization.
Mobile and other services may require advance scheduling. You can use the Book an Appointment link to select an available time.
🖊️ 3. What types of documents can you notarize?
I can notarize documents when the notarization meets Arizona's requirements and the document contains an appropriate notarial certificate.
Common examples may include powers of attorney, affidavits, acknowledgments, real estate documents, business documents, and certain personal documents.
A notary does not determine whether a document is legally appropriate or valid.
🖊️ 4. Can you notarize wills, living wills, and advance directives?
Yes, when the document requires notarization and the notarization meets Arizona requirements.
Please note: I provide notarial services only. I do not prepare legal documents or provide legal advice. If you need assistance determining what documents you need or how they should be completed, you should consult an attorney.
🖊️ 5. What is a mobile notary?
A mobile notary travels to an agreed-upon location to provide notarial services.
Mobile appointments may be available at your home, office, facility, or another convenient location, depending on scheduling and service-area availability.
🖊️ 6. What is Remote Online Notarization (RON)?
Remote Online Notarization allows you to meet with an authorized notary through audio-video technology over the internet instead of meeting in person.
Arizona requires the signer’s identity to be verified and other requirements to be completed before the remote notarization can take place.
🖊️ 7. Do you provide loan signing services?
Yes. Loan signing services are available for qualifying real estate transactions, including home purchases, refinances, and other loan-related signings.
My goal is to provide a professional and organized signing experience while helping make the signing process convenient for the borrower.
🖊️ 8. Can you explain my loan documents?
As a notary signing agent, I can help facilitate the signing process and point out where documents require signatures, initials, or other required information.
However, I cannot provide legal, financial, or lending advice or explain the terms or consequences of your loan. Questions about your loan should be directed to your lender, escrow officer, title company, or appropriate professional.
🖊️ 9. How much do your notary services cost?
Notarial fees are subject to Arizona law and applicable state rules. Arizona currently permits notaries to charge up to $10 per notarial act, depending on the type of act. Additional fees may apply for services such as travel or other permitted services.
Your total appointment cost will be discussed before the appointment whenever possible.
🖊️ 10. Do you offer after-hours appointments?
After-hours appointments may be available depending on my schedule and location.
Please contact me or use the appointment scheduler to check current availability.
🖊️ 11. Do you provide services in Spanish?
Sí. Hablamos Español.
Spanish-language service is available to help make the notarization process more comfortable and convenient for our clients.
🖊️ 12. What if I have questions about my legal documents?
I'm happy to explain the notarization process, but I cannot provide legal advice, determine which legal documents you need, or prepare legal documents for you.
For questions about the legal meaning, content, or preparation of a document, please consult a qualified attorney.
🖊️ 13. What if my document doesn't have a notarial certificate?
That's okay. If your document does not include a notarial certificate, please let me know before the appointment.
Arizona law allows a notarial certificate to be attached to the document when appropriate. However, the signer must determine which type of notarization they are requesting. As a notary, I cannot choose the notarial act for you when doing so would require me to determine the legal effect or purpose of your document.
If you are unsure which type of notarization your document requires, please contact the document's preparer, attorney, lender, title company, or other appropriate professional before your appointment.
Please do not sign your document before your appointment unless you have been specifically instructed to do so.
