What is Notary Public?

A notary public is a licensed professional authorized by the state to witness the signing of important documents and administer oaths.

Notaries are responsible for:

• Verifying the identity of the person signing the document
• Ensuring that they understand the content of the document
• Administering oaths and affirmations
• Performing acknowledgments and certifying document copies

Notary services may vary by state, but most notaries offer a combination of these services.

Although notarization is not always mandatory, using a notary public when handling legal documents helps ensure security and protection for all parties involved.
