Witnessing or Attesting a Signature

Some documents require an additional level of verification to confirm that the signer is who they claim to be. Witnessing or attesting a signature involves a notary verifying the individual’s identity and watching as they sign the document. This is often required for powers of attorney, wills, financial documents, and other legally binding agreements. To complete this service, the signer must appear in person or through a secure online notarization platform with valid identification.

This process helps prevent fraud and ensures that the signature is legitimate and uncoerced. By having a notary serve as a witness, the document gains credibility and may be accepted by financial institutions, courts, or other legal entities. If your documents require witnessed signatures, schedule an appointment to ensure they are executed correctly and legally.
