Go to a Notary vs Mobile Notary

A Notary is a Notary! First off, a Texas Notary Public is just that a Notary. A mobile notary comes to you. You go to a notary if they have a store front or office location. I don’t have a storefront or office location so I come to you. The fee for the notary transaction…

Yes, A Notary Is A Notary

Yes, a notary is a notary, at least in Texas. Everyone has a different idea of what a notary is to them. I have a couple of thoughts on this. If you are a commissioned notary you can perform whatever notarial acts are allowed by law in your state. You will find references to “notary…
