A notary is a public Service official appointed by the government to witness the signing of important documents. Their role is to verify the authenticity of signatures, administer oaths, and certify the execution of legal and official papers. Notaries help prevent fraud by confirming the identity of signers and ensuring their willingness to sign. Notary Public Service play a crucial role in establishing the validity and integrity of documents such as contracts, deeds, wills, and powers of attorney. In essence, a notary is a trusted witness who adds credibility and legal certainty to the signing process..

Notary Questions
ID, witnesses, and what a Florida notary can and cannot do.
A current government-issued photo ID that includes your signature. A Florida driver license, Florida ID card, U.S. passport, foreign passport, or military ID all work. If you have no acceptable ID, Florida allows a credible witness who knows you and has their own valid ID — tell me in advance if that is your situation.
Many Florida documents do. Wills, most powers of attorney, and some real estate documents require two witnesses. I can arrange witnesses for $25 each if you request them in advance. A witness cannot be someone named in the document.
No. Please bring it complete but unsigned. I witness every signature myself, which means I need to see you sign. If a document arrives already signed, we may have to reprint it, so it is worth waiting the extra few minutes.
Florida sets a statutory maximum notarial fee of $10 per act. My $45 mobile fee covers travel and the first notarization, with $10 for each additional one. Remote online notarization is $50, with $25 for each additional notarization in the same session.
I cannot give legal advice, choose or prepare a document for you, tell you what to file, or certify copies of vital records such as birth, death, or marriage certificates — those come from the issuing agency. I also cannot notarize a document for myself or where I have a financial interest.
