A Notary Public is a state-appointed official that witnesses the signing of important documents (and helps prevent fraud). Their official stamp and signature as a witness will appear next yours on the documents you are signing, and they will keep a third-party record that the signature occurred. Any two individuals can create a contract between themselves and sign the contract, but without a notary seal and record it’s more difficult to prove the validity of the signing. So in special cases a public officer will facilitate the signing in person and record it officially.
When it’s a Mobile Notary Public, like Matt Puzz with SignDox AZ, that means they come to you, instead of you having to drive to an office somewhere, which is much more convenient. Client’s often express their appreciation for the service since they don’t have to extend their lunch hour or take time off work to get their documents notarized.
Common documents that need to be notarized may include but are not limited to:
Real Estate & Escrow Closing Documents
90% of my business is in this line of work. Deeds of Trusts when it comes to real estate need to be notarized, there are other forms that need notarized depending on the type of transaction. Transactions with lenders usually have more paperwork and more forms to notarize, while simple cash offers may have considerably less to notarize. Title companies are one of the most common entities or organizations that need a notary public.
Vehicle Title
Auto or DOT titles need to be notarized primarily for the purpose of verifying the miles on the odometer.
Living Wills
A living will directs a chosen person or people to make decisions according to your wishes and needs related to your estate. This includes how your assets will be distributed to your heirs, and who will be trusted to take care of your minor children, and other post-life wishes.
Financial Power of Attorney
A Power of Attorney regarding financial affairs may be part of a trust or an individual matter where a person/people may not be able to make sound state of mind decisions when it relates to their finances or things determined to be financial in nature.
Bail Bonds
There are certain documents that need to be notarized as part of the Bail Bond process depending on the company and the circumstances.
Immigration Paperwork
Not to be confused with an apostille document, immigration work would involve forms related to citizenship status and may even require an interpreter to complete.
Divorce Documents
Not every divorce requires attorneys to oversee every aspect; there are amicable or otherwise divorces that just need paperwork submitted and notarized, usually under the supervision or a Paralegal or single Attorney representing both parties.
Commercial Loan Documents
These loans and agreements can be unique in many ways and experience of the Notary Public/Signer is crucial. While the the Notary Public is not responsible for explaining or interpreting the forms, knowing how to scan a form is important so no signatures, initials, and dates are missed.
Gun Trusts
A gun trust is a device to hold certain guns, ammo, accessories, and certain weapons that a person without could not legally own. The trust is the owner and the paperwork is regularly available online but needs to be notarized to be properly filed.
The Most Common Entities That Hire A Notary Public:
The most common entities that produce documents which need to be notarized include entities that effect changes in public record.

In addition to the convenience a mobile notary provides, it helps to have a notary that is reliable and knowledgeable about the documents being signed.

He understands not just that they need to be notarized but in many cases he understands why.
Matt is also extremely efficient compared to other Notary Publics. On one occasion a nationwide signing services scheduler was evaluating Matt’s performance compared to other Notary Public officials. In the 8 years that Matt had partnered with them he had provided over 2,500 signings. In that time he only had 11 mistakes. The same services scheduler explained that most mobile notaries would make 11 mistakes in about a month’s worth of work. Mistakes can happen with anyone, but in the rare cases they happen with Matt, he gets them corrected swiftly and efficiently.
