What we can and cannot notarize

We CAN notarize these:
- Powers of attorney

- And many more…
We CANNOT notarize these:

Notary service rules and guidelines
The following rules and guidelines apply to all notary services – in-person, virtual, and remote:
- Valid photo ID must be provided before notarization. A state-issued drivers license, identification card, or passport are acceptable.
- Signor must ensure that two disinterested witnesses are present for the signing. “Disinterested” means that the witnesses do not have a financial, legal, or equitable interest in the matter for which the document is being signed. If you are unable to assemble these witnesses, TrustBridge Legal can provide witnesses at a rate of $20 per witness.
- Documents to be notarized may not be signed prior to the arrival of the notary, nor can a document be re-signed if already signed before the notary arrives. Only unsigned documents may be used for notarization purposes.
- A personal appearance by the signor in front of the notary, whether in person or virtually, is required.
- We cannot pre-date or post-date any documents to be notarized. However, the effective date of the document to be notarized is irrelevant to the date of actual notarization. It is the actual date that the signor appears in front of the notary that will be reflected on the document.
- We accept various payment methods, including credit card, debit card, Venmo, PayPal, ACH, and cash. We will provide a receipt for each notary transaction for your records.
- Our notary is licensed, bonded, and insured. In the unlikely event that a notarial error is made, we will correct the error as quickly as possible.
For mobile notary services, the following apply:
- For your protection, our notary will provide an official identification card from the Texas Secretary of State and a personal photo ID to ensure the confidence of the notarization process.
- Additional fees, over and above the standard or quoted pricing, may be incurred if an appointment for mobile notary services runs beyond the standard time allowed.
For virtual notary services, you must have access to a computer, tablet, or cell phone with audio and camera capabilities.
