We send a commissioned New Jersey notary and, if you ask, the witnesses, so the attorney's signing meeting goes the way the attorney planned. We notarize and witness. The attorney drafts and advises.

New Jersey wills generally need two witnesses. Tell us how many you need when you book. **Can you explain the documents?** No. We aren't lawyers and can't give legal advice. We can tell the signer what each notarial act is, and the attorney explains the documents. **Can you come to a hospital or care facility?** Yes. Tell us the facility and floor, and we'll arrange access with the staff. **What if one signer seems confused or pressured?** We have to stop. A notary can't proceed if the signer seems unsure about what they are signing or why we are there, and we'll tell the attorney. **Do you keep copies of the documents?** No. Originals and any scans go to you, and we don't keep them after delivery.
