What is a Notary Public, and Why Do I Need One?

A Notary Public is an official appointed by the Secretary of State and authorized to serve the public as an unbiased witness when performing many legal formalities relating to the drafting or certifying of contracts, deeds, and other official documents. These official acts are called notarizations, or notarial acts. By law, a Notary Public is allowed to take acknowledgements, administer oaths and affirmations, perform jurats, take depositions, and certify copies of power of attorney. Notaries deter fraud and decipher whether the signer recognizes the document they are signing. They ensure that the signer is a willing participant in the notarization process.

What Does a Notary Public Do?

A Notary Public screens signers of official documents to establish their true identity, their awareness of the contents of the official transaction or document, and their willingness to sign without intimidation. Some notarizations require the Notary Public to place the signer under oath, declaring that under penalty of perjury, all the information listed is valid.

ACTING IN the public trust

A Notary Public must remain impartial to gain the public’s trust. Furthermore, they must not act according to their personal interests. When impartiality is established, the public can trust that the Notary’s tasks have not been compromised. A Notary cannot refuse to serve a person due to nationality, religion, race, political preference, sexual orientation, or status as a non-customer.

How Does A Notary Correctly Identify A Signer?

Often, a Notary will ask for a current photo ID of the participant. Also, Notaries will ask for a physical description and signature. Acceptable photo IDs typically include a driver’s license or a valid passport.

HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO HAVE A DOCUMENT NOTARIZED?

The process usually takes about five minutes for a single document. In addition to providing a proper ID, customers need to sign the Notary’s public record book and provide a thumbprint.

CAN A NOTARY HELP TO PREPARE DOCUMENTS?

No. A Notary Public is not allowed to assist in drafting documents aside from making sure the documents are complete and are signed and dated in the proper place and by the right person.

CAN A NOTARY REFUSE TO NOTARIZE A DOCUMENT?

Yes. If a Notary Public is unable to properly identify a client or be certain the client knows what they are signing, they can refuse to notarize a document. A Notary Public can be held legally responsible if a document they notarize turns out to be fraudulent.
