A Notary Public is a trusted official who witnesses and authenticates important document signatures, ensuring legality and trust.
A Jurat is a distinct notarial act in which a notary public certifies that an individual has sworn or affirmed the truthfulness of a document’s contents.
An acknowledgment is a notarial act in which a notary public verifies that the signer personally appeared, was properly identified, and willingly signed the document of their own accord.
A Loan Signing Agent (LSA) is a notary public with specialized training and certification to notarize loan documents. Their primary responsibility is to oversee the signing process for mortgage loan paperwork, ensuring all required signatures, initials, and dates are correctly placed and properly notarized. LSAs play a vital role in real estate transactions, particularly in the loan closing process.
Official government-issued IDs verify identity for notarization. They include photos and are crucial for authenticity.
Notarization does not confirm the accuracy or legality of a document’s content. The signer is solely responsible for its information. The Notary Public’s role is to verify the signer’s identity, typically by checking a valid government-issued ID that includes a photo, physical description, and signature.
NO, a Notary Public cannot give legal advice unless they are also a licensed attorney. Notaries are limited to performing specific duties related to the notarization of documents, such as verifying identities, witnessing signatures, administering oaths, and ensuring the proper execution of documents. Providing legal advice falls outside the scope of their authorized duties.
