Estate Planning Documents

Estate planning documents may include wills, declaration of guardian, trusts, financial and medical powers of attorney, HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act) forms and Appointment for Disposition of remains. A last will and testament in Texas, with a Self-Proving Affidavit, will require witnesses and a notary.  A Texas attorney will know the signature requirements. If you use an online or other service, the documents may have witness and notary signature lines even though they may not be required. Our notaries are not attorneys so if a document has both witnesses and notary signatures, then both witnesses and a notary will need to sign even if the document would be legal without them.

There are exceptions to the witness and notary rules if the document states witnesses OR notary. This is commonly seen on stock “Medical Power of Attorney” and “Advance Directive” forms. As mentioned previously….

Our notaries are not attorneys.

  • We do not guarantee the truth or accuracy of the document.
  • We have no obligation to verify the document’s content.
  • We do not legalize or validate a document.

Real Estate Closing Documents

Any Texas notary public can notarize these documents. These documents may also require the notary to ensure other forms (non-notary forms) are completed. We are not certified signing agents but we do handle these transactions. Most of this business comes from out of state because they don’t already have established local relationships.
