What Is Notarization?
Notarization is a confirmation made by a Notary Public that the signature on a specific document is authentic; the signatory has signed it without any pressure, and they agree to the conditions of the document to be applied with full force and effect. Most notarization requests involve the signature of papers. All signatories, as well as any needed witnesses, should be present when the document is notarized. You will need to present appropriate identification, as well as all pages of the paperwork to be notarized.
Who Notarizes Documents?
The lawyers at Stephens Holman Devraj can attest and certify documents with signatures and official seals to render them acceptable to many public authorities in Canada, and sometimes in other countries as well.
Why Do You Need to Notarize Documents?
Certain documents, such as a medical document, a power of attorney, a business agreement, property papers, or a sales bill, need to be notarized to have legal effect. Most provinces and local governments have made it obligatory to recruit a skilled professional to help execute legal documents that must be notarized due to the inherent formal requirements. A notary public acts as a quasi-public authority to certify the proper execution of these essential papers.
