Documents That Need Notary

Documents That Need Notary are those that require a notary public or other qualified official to witness and certify the authenticity of the signature(s). In order for a document to be officially accepted, it must be signed in the presence of such an official who can verify its accuracy. Such documents could include powers of attorney, real estate deeds or contracts, mortgage or loan agreements, or wills. Having a document notarized adds an extra layer of security and legal validity to ensure that the signer is legally bound to the terms of the document.
