1.Document signer must personally appear before the Notary at time of notarization--not before, not after.

A telephone call from the signer or the Notary's familiarity with a signature is not a personal appearance.

2. The Notary must identify the signer through either (1) personal knowledge (2) vouching of personally known reliable, uninvolved witness who is under oath (3) current government-issued ID card with photograph, signature and physical description.

(Current Driver's License or Passport with same name as what is on document to be signed) I can have you sign if name is different on your ids. However, it can not be less than what is on the document to notarized. If id name is less than it is on document then we can still notarize.

3. We can notarize without id at times, but you will be placed under oath and should have at least two witness's to verify whom you are.

Identification Needed:

 Current Driver's License with description, photograph and physical description.

Name must be the same on your documents you are signing.

(We can always add to signature on document, but never sign less than what is on documents to be prepared. AKA on documents may be needed.)

Current Passport with current information.

Be prepared to be finger-printed and placed under oath.

No documents will be notarized if there are any unfllled blanks.

Will need 2 credible witness's with id's that have no interest in the notarization, nor have their names listed anywhere in documents.

No one can be named in the document you are haveing notarized.  The credible witness's must have no interest in the document being signed.

They can be friends, neighbors and relatives. As long as their names are not in documents and they have no interest.

They must have id's and will be required to sign notary book and will be fingerprinted. They may be placed under oath.

Local only is  in Tracy.

$50.00 for notary service for time and travel and 10.00 for each signature needed. Loan documents are 125.00 . These are paid at time of service. Not billed. Paid whether loan goes through or not!

Some documents require more than one signature. So please take notice of documents to be signed. Signature is one signature!  Not for each piece of paper!   One paper may require more than one signature. Example: Husband and wife signs that is two signatures on one page. Cost is 70.00.

Out of Tracy area I will charge an additional fee.  Depending on location and drive time and time of notarization needed.

I prefer cash. I will take checks. No credit cards. If checks do not clear then there is a 25.00 fee for returned checks. This is paid at time of signing. So make sure you have funds available before you call me.

Before I arrive make sure you have read all documents and understand them all. I get paid for services whether you sign or not. So make sure you have read everything. I will not charge for notarization only my service fee, if you change your mind in signing after I get there you are still liable for my time and travel.

I am not an attorney and cannot give legal advice on any documents that you are signing. No unfilled blanks!

Tracy is the main area of notarization. I will travel to these other areas.

Stockton, Modesto, Manteca, Ripon, Lathrop, Salida

Livermore, Pleasanton, Dublin

I will consider all other areas if you are willing to pay additional time and travel.
