We will not be scheduling appointments on Wednesday, 2/25 and Thursday 2/26.

Our nephew (and 5 other Buffalo Bison!!) will be competing at the Missouri State Wrestling Championship, and we’ll be there cheering him on as he represents our community on the state stage. Sending six high school athletes to represent our school at this level is a huge accomplishment.

We appreciate your understanding and support and we are incredibly proud of him. Let’s go! 💪🤼‍♂️

👥 Witness Availability – What You Need to Know!!

Some documents require one or two witnesses in addition to notarization. If your paperwork calls for witnesses, please keep the following in mind:

✔️ Witnesses must be physically present at the time of signing.
✔️ They must be 18 or older and have valid identification.
✔️ In most cases, witnesses cannot be named in or benefit from the document.

Please note: I do not automatically provide witnesses. If your document requires them, you are responsible for bringing qualified witnesses with you unless we have discussed arrangements in advance.

If you’re unsure whether your document needs witnesses, feel free to message me before your appointment so we can make sure everything is properly prepared.

✍️ Getting Documents Notarized? Here Are a Few Important Do’s & Don’ts!

To make your appointment smooth and stress-free, keep these tips in mind:

✅ DO:
• Bring a valid, government-issued photo ID (driver’s license, state ID, passport).
• Make sure all signers are present at the appointment.
• Review your documents ahead of time to ensure they’re complete. YES YOU CAN FILL THEM OUT.... just don't sign your name until I am there.
• Wait to sign until you are in front of the notary (unless instructed otherwise). In some cases.... the time of signing may differ. The notary can instruct you.

❌ DON’T:
• Don’t sign the document before your appointment (in most cases, it must be witnessed).
• Don’t leave blanks in the document ... incomplete forms may need to be corrected before notarization.
• Don’t bring expired identification.
• Don’t forget any required witnesses if your document calls for them.

If you’re unsure about your paperwork, feel free to reach out before your appointment. I’m happy to help guide you so everything goes smoothly!

Can a Notary Translate a Document Written
 in a Foreign Language?

We are often asked whether a notary public can translate a document written in a foreign language. This question commonly arises in connection with immigration, court, academic, and other official paperwork. So...the short answer is.... no.

A notary public is authorized to take acknowledgments, administer oaths (jurat), and perform other notarial acts permitted under their state’s notary laws. Before completing any notarial act, the notary must verify the signer’s identity and confirm that the signer appears competent and understands the nature and consequences of signing the document. Notaries are not permitted to explain, draft, or certify the truthfulness of a document’s content. A notary commission does not authorize an individual to translate documents.

Pricing you ask??

Many people ask what goes into the $25 mobile notary fee. To keep things simple and fair, this rate is flat and consistent for everyone — it does not change based on time of day, distance traveled, or appointment type. Transparency matters, so here’s exactly how that cost is structured:

✅ $5 – Notarial Act
This is the state-regulated fee for witnessing your signature and completing the notarization.

🚗 $20 – Mobile Service & Professional Time
This covers everything that makes mobile notary convenient for you:

• Travel to your location - Appointment flexibility and after hours service calls
• Fuel and vehicle expenses
• Appointment scheduling and coordination
• Document review and preparation
• Printing supplies (when needed)
• Professional liability insurance
• Ongoing training and certification
• Business operating costs
• Most importantly — my time and availability so you don’t have to leave home or work

You’re not just paying for a stamp, you’re paying for convenience, reliability, and personalized service delivered right to your door. We accept cash, venmo, and paypal.

Thank you for supporting local small businesses and trusting me with your important documents! 🤍✍️
