Notary Public Information

A trusted notary public ensures your important documents are legally authenticated, providing peace of mind that your transactions are secure and compliant with Michigan law. Whether you're signing a real estate contract, finalizing a power of attorney, or verifying an affidavit, a notary public confirms your identity, witnesses your signature, and helps prevent fraud. By choosing a reliable notary, you protect the integrity of your agreements and ensure they hold up in legal settings, saving you time and potential complications.

Important Facts About Notary Services:

Role Clarity: A notary public verifies identities, witnesses signatures, and administers oaths but does not provide legal advice or act as an attorney (MCL 55.291).
Fraud Prevention: Notarization helps deter fraud by ensuring the signer is who they claim to be and is signing willingly.
Legal Compliance: Michigan notaries follow strict guidelines, including avoiding conflicts of interest (e.g., not notarizing for close family members like a spouse or sibling).
Fee Transparency: Notary fees are regulated by Michigan law, ensuring fair and consistent pricing for services.
