Common questions
Can I send someone else to notarize my signature?
For the in-person appointments described here, the signer must appear before the notary. Sending a signed document with another person does not replace that appearance.
Should I sign the document before the appointment?
Tell us whether it is already signed. Signing requirements depend on the notarial act. If signing must be witnessed, wait until the appointment and follow the notary’s instructions.
Can DocuTrust choose or draft my legal document?
We do not provide legal advice, select legal provisions or draft legal instruments. Bring a document supplied by you or your attorney. Ask an attorney about legal meaning, rights or which document you need.
Does notarization make the document legally valid?
Notarization completes a specific notarial act; it does not establish that every provision is valid, appropriate or enforceable. Legal questions should be directed to an attorney.
What does the appointment cost?
We confirm the number and type of notarial acts, any separate administrative or travel work, and the price before starting. Applicable statutory fee limits are respected. No price or same-day availability is guaranteed on this page.
