FAQ
Common questions
Will a notary meet us at the funeral home?
Yes, where a visit is available. We confirm the address and the price before anyone is sent, and many documents can also be signed online.
Which documents need a notary after someone dies?
It depends on who is asking. Banks, title companies and the MVC commonly want affidavits signed before a notary. Ask the office for its exact form before the signing.
Can a notary come to a patient at home?
Yes, if they can understand what they are signing and show a valid ID. We can come to the home, hospital or care facility. The notary cannot sign for someone who cannot.
