FAQ
Common questions
Will a notary meet us at the funeral home?
Often, yes. Tell us the funeral home and the documents, and we confirm availability and the total before booking. An online session is another option.
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, at the home or a facility, as long as the person signing is alert, understands the document and has ID.
