What is a Notary Public? A Notary Public is a public servant appointed by state government to witness the signing of important documents and administer oaths.
Why are documents notarized? Documents are notarized to deter fraud and to ensure they are properly executed. An impartial witness (the Notary) identifies signers to screen out impostors and to make sure they have entered into agreements knowingly and willingly.
How does a Notary identify a signer? Generally, the Notary will ask to see a current identification document or card with a photograph, physical description and signature. driver’s license, military ID or passport will usually be acceptable.
Is notarization required by law? For many documents, yes. Certain affidavits, deeds and powers of attorney may not be legally binding unless they are properly notarized.
Can a Notary refuse to serve people? Only if the Notary is uncertain of a signer's identity, willingness, mental awareness, or has cause to suspect fraud. Notaries may not refuse service on the basis of race, religion, nationality, lifestyle, or because the person is not a client or customer.
