FAQs

Helpful answers to prepare for a calm, organized, and professional estate planning signing appointment.

What estate planning documents can you notarize?

We provide notarization support for eligible, fully prepared estate planning documents, including:
  • Last wills and testaments
  • Trust documents and trust certifications
  • Durable powers of attorney
  • Healthcare surrogate designations
  • Living wills and advance directives
  • Affidavits and related estate planning forms
Documents should be prepared and reviewed before the appointment. We do not select forms, draft documents, or provide legal advice.

Are notarization fees included in the package price?

+
Yes. Most standard attorney prepared estate planning signing appointments are covered by the package price without separate charges for each included notarial certificate. Additional fees may apply for unusually large document packages, additional signers, multiple witnesses, significant waiting time, or appointments extending beyond 60 minutes. Any additional charges will be discussed before the appointment is confirmed.

Do I need to provide witnesses?

+
The client or preparing attorney should confirm how many witnesses are required for each document. When witnesses are required, clients may provide their own qualified witnesses. Professional witness assistance may also be requested in advance for an additional fee, subject to availability.

What happens if I have more than two signers?

+
The standard package includes up to two signers. Appointments involving additional signers may require additional time and coordination. Please provide the number of signers when requesting service so an accurate quote can be provided before confirmation.

How long does an estate planning signing take?

+
Most appointments are completed within 60 minutes. The exact time depends on the number of documents, signers, witnesses, and whether everyone is present and prepared. Additional time is available in 30 minute increments when needed.

Can you explain the documents or tell me where to sign?

+
We may identify signature lines, witness sections, and notarial certificates as part of coordinating the signing. However, we cannot interpret legal language, explain the legal effect of a document, recommend how a provision should be completed, or advise whether the document meets your needs. Questions about the content should be directed to the preparing attorney.

Can you notarize documents at a hospital, hospice, or senior living community?

+
Yes. Mobile appointments may be scheduled at hospitals, hospice locations, rehabilitation centers, nursing homes, assisted living communities, and private residences. The signer must be willing to sign, able to communicate directly with the notary, and able to demonstrate awareness of the transaction at the time of the appointment.

Can estate planning documents be notarized remotely online?

+
Some eligible documents may be completed through Remote Online Notarization. Availability depends on the document, signer identification, witness requirements, platform capabilities, and acceptance by the preparing attorney or receiving party. Please confirm remote eligibility before scheduling.

Where do you provide mobile estate planning signing services?

+
We are based in Boynton Beach and provide mobile appointments throughout West Palm Beach, Boynton Beach, Delray Beach, Boca Raton, and surrounding Palm Beach County communities. Travel beyond the included 10 mile radius is available for an additional mileage charge.
