Today Notary is my reputable notary public firm in Sherman Oaks, CA. Many people from the area already know me for my expertise, integrity, and speedy service. However, if you still don’t know about my firm, feel free to read the answers to the questions that I most commonly get asked, which are answered below:

What types of services do you offer?

I specialize in notary public service, real estate documents, jail notary services, Power of Attorney, and Apostille services. I deliver every service with professionalism, gravity, respect, and attention to even the tiniest detail that is expected from an expert such as myself.

When do I need notary services?

A notary public is responsible for verifying the authenticity of important transactions. The consent of a notary public like me is the final step in establishing power of attorney, closing on a home, filing for an FBI apostille, or opening a retirement account.

A notary public is appointed by a state government for the purpose of deterring fraud, such professionals witness the signing of important documents and confirm the identity of the signers, their willingness to sign the documents, as well as their awareness of the contents signed. Public notaries have to give their stamp of approval to documents such as:

• Deeds
• Estates
• Affidavits,
• Power of attorney
• Contracts
• Licenses
• Loan documents
• Trusts
• FBI Apostille

What is a jail notary?

The obligations of a jail notary are similar to those of other notaries. The only difference is that the process typically calls for witnesses for the inmate because inmates don’t usually have identification which is demanded by a jail notary.

What is an Apostille?

Apostille is a French word that means a certification. It is pronounced “ah-to-steel.” An Apostille is a name for a specialized additional certificate that is issued by the Secretary of State in some international cases. The Apostille is attached to your original document to confirm it is legitimate and authentic so it can be accepted in one of the other countries members of the Hague Apostille Convention. All 50 states in the US can issue an Apostille. I can help you acquire the Apostille you need.

Why is choosing the right notary crucial?

A notary public like me will give you the peace of mind that you won’t become the victim of fraud, no matter what kind of transaction or important document you need to be signed. That means that the services of a notary play an essential role in pivotal moments of a person’s life, such as the purchase of real estate or closing a business deal. There is so much at stake in these situations that you can’t afford to choose the wrong notary. That is why you should not trust just anyone with this mission. Instead, you should choose a notary of proven integrity and professionalism.
