Notarize something??

[Sirrahsim]

Where do you take soemthing to get it notarized? Post office? Lawyer's office? County Court House??

Lawyers can notarize anything, because they are officers of the court, but I don't know how much they would charge. The courthouse is also a very good place to get something notarized, I am sure there is one there and they will probably only charge you around $5.00 to do it. But, don't you live on base? Is there a services office of some sort on base? They probably have someone who is a notary. It is fairly easy to get your notary license (at least in NJ it is).

I'd go to the court house or bank.

Assuming you're on a base, there should be notaries available through the post legal office.

I'm trying to figure it out for when we sell my husband's car. It will need to be notarized in Ohio while we are here in Texas. I'm trying to have all the info on hand to make the sale as easy as possible on the buyer. Will any bank notarize or do you need to be a member?

[Ginger's Mom]

I am sorry Missy, I am a little confused now. Do you want someone in another state to notarize something for you? I think generally what notary's do is notarize your signature as actually being you. So you need to be present and present photo identification. As to you whether a bank will notarize the signature of someone who is not a customer, I think that may vary according the the bank's individual policy. Some may some may not. Why do you need it to be notarized in Ohio if you are not signing over the paperwork in Ohio? I'm sorry if I am getting this all wrong.

Usually the bank will notarize for no fee if you have an account. They will charge a fee if you are not. The fee is small.

You should sign the document IN FRONT OF THE NOTARY....unless they know you well they should require that you do so as that is what they are attesting to.

Kinko's or the like would also likely have a notary.

Most banks have someone who is a notary on staff. You need not be a bank's customer, as notaries are not even allowed to be reimbursed for their services. Most banks, most law offices, and certainly city hall all have a notary public on board, I have a friend who is a notary because her husband is a contractor, and they needed one often for his business paperwork.
