Notary Public & SIGNING AGENT SERVICES

As a notary public, our duty is to officially witness the free and willing signing of one or more documents by one or more people whose identity the notary has verified. In most cases, the document is signed in the notary’s presence; in some cases, it is signed first and then brought to the notary public by the signer, who will then acknowledge to the notary that he or she signed it.

Duties of a Notary Public:

  • verify the identity of the signer(s) who appear before them;
  • have enough of a conversation with the signer(s) to be reasonably sure they are signing freely and willingly;
  •  witness the signer(s) signing the document(s);
  • administer an oath to the signer(s) if one is required by the document;
  • verify that all of the notary-specific elements of the document are present, correct any that are incorrect, complete any that are incomplete, and add any that are missing;
  • sign the document in the place designated for their signature;
  • place their official seal on the document (if required by their state to do so).
  • In many states, the notary public will record the details of the notary act he or she just completed in a notary journal and have the signer of the document sign the journal. In some states, notaries also get a thumbprint or driver’s license number of the signer in their journals. Even if the State does not require the use of a notary journal, it is considered best practice to maintain one. 
  • The purpose of all of this activity is to add a level of trust to the document. Notarization shows that a document was executed in such a way that it is binding upon the parties whose names appear in it. A notarized document is taken as evidence that those whose names appear in it and who signed it chose to do what the document says they will do, to authorize what it says is authorized, or to verify under oath that the statements of facts in it are true so far as the signers know.
