All 50 states and D.C.
A notary public is an impartial witness appointed by the state. At the appointment the notary identifies each signer, takes the acknowledgment or administers the oath the document calls for, and completes the notarial certificate.
A mobile notary does that wherever the signer is: at home, at work, in a hospital or in a care facility, and the originals come back the way you choose.
Every notary we send is commissioned in the state where the act is performed. A commission works only inside its own state.
The same steps apply to one signer at home or several signers at a facility.
Where and when, the signers, the document, the return.
One price, printing and return mail included if wanted.
You check the quote and pay its invoice online.
Commissioned where the signing happens, briefed on site.
ID checked, certificate completed, journal where required.
Every notarization comes down to the same three questions: who is signing, do they understand, and are they signing willingly.
Acknowledgments, jurats, oaths and affirmations: powers of attorney, affidavits, deeds and the other common ones.
You get the completed certificate for the act your document calls for.
Loan and real estate signing packages can be requested. Tell us the package type and the lender’s return instructions at intake.
You get the package signed and returned as the instructions say.
We notarize signatures on trust documents, and on a will’s self-proving affidavit where the state uses one. Wills have execution rules that vary by state, so your attorney sets them.
You get a notary who follows the signing your attorney planned.
Hospital, hospice and care facilities; correctional facilities on request. Tell us if the signer’s condition may affect the appointment.
You get a notary who works around staff and visiting hours.
Next-day and same-day appointments can be requested. Evenings and weekends depend on the area; your quote says what is available.
You get a realistic window in writing before anyone is sent.
A certified copy of an original document, where the law of the state the notary is in allows it. Not every state does.
You get a straight answer on whether your state allows it.

Two things decide whether a signing goes ahead on the day: each signer’s ID, and the state of the document they sign.
Current government-issued photo ID: a driver’s license, state ID, passport or military ID, the original card in the name on the document. Some states accept a recently expired ID or a sworn credible witness; tell us at intake if a signer has none.
Bring it finished but unsigned. An affidavit or other sworn statement has to be signed in front of the notary; signing at the appointment works for every act. Need witnesses? Pick how many we bring.
Served 123 LLC is not a law firm, and our notaries act only as notaries: they cannot give legal advice or draft documents.
Choosing the document, or which notarial act it takes, is legal advice, and a notary who is not an attorney cannot choose it for you. If you are unsure what you need, ask the attorney or the party who asked for the notarization.
A notarial certificate says who signed and that they were identified as that state’s law requires. It says nothing about whether the document does what you need, and we cannot draft or complete it for you.
Upload the documents and choose printing, and the notary brings the package printed and in order.
The signer can keep the originals, or we mail them back by First Class, Certified, Priority or Express. Certified, Priority and Express include tracking.
Everything we charge, printing and return mail included, is in your written quote first. Our other services are on our pricing page.
A notary must decline if a signer cannot be identified or does not appear before the notary.
Our notaries also decline a document with blanks or a signer who seems confused or pressured. Some states require that; in others it is the notary’s call.
A clear reason, and no certificate. Notarizing through any of those does not protect the document; it can expose the document and the notary to challenge.
What attorneys, families and facilities ask before they book a mobile notary.
Current government-issued photo ID for every signer: a driver’s license, state ID, passport or military ID, the original card in the name on the document. Some states accept a recently expired ID or a sworn credible witness; if a signer has no current ID, tell us at intake.
No. Bring it finished but unsigned. A sworn statement (jurat) must be signed in front of the notary, and signing at the appointment avoids a redo for every other act.
No. Choosing the document or the notarial act is legal advice, and a notary who is not an attorney may not do it. If you are unsure what you need, ask the attorney or the party who asked for the notarization.
Yes. Choose the location type on the form and put the room, visiting hours and any facility contact in the special instructions. Correctional facilities can be requested.
Loan and real estate signings can be requested. Tell us the package type and the lender’s return instructions at intake, and your quote confirms what we can do.
We notarize signatures on trust documents, and on a will’s self-proving affidavit where the state uses one. Wills have execution requirements that vary by state, so your attorney should set how the signing runs.
Yes. Upload the documents and choose printing on the form, and the notary brings them. For the originals you pick: the signer keeps them, First Class, Certified, Priority or Express. The price is in your written quote.
Many states cap the notary’s fee per act; where they do, that piece is set by law. What varies is how soon you need it, the number of signatures and witnesses, and printing and return mail. All of it goes in a written quote before anyone is sent.
Next-day and same-day appointments can be requested; evenings and weekends depend on the area. Choose a time window on the form and your quote gives a realistic window before anyone is sent.
Where it is permitted, and that depends on three things: whether the notary’s state allows it (the notary must be located there), whether the document type is eligible, and whether the receiving party will accept a remotely notarized document. Ask in the special instructions before you rely on it.
A notary must decline if a signer cannot be identified or does not appear before the notary, in person or by an approved remote session. Our notaries also decline a document with blanks, or a signer who seems confused or under pressure.
