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.

**What do families usually need notarized after a death?**

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 someone receiving care at home in Monmouth County sign a power of attorney?**

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.
