Question 1

Do you come to me?

Accepted Answer

Yes. This is a mobile notary service — we travel to your home, office, hospital, care facility, or another agreed location by appointment. You pick the time and place, and we come to you.

Question 2

What areas do you serve?

Accepted Answer

Woodbridge and the surrounding Northern Virginia communities, including Dale City, Lake Ridge, Dumfries, Occoquan, Manassas, Stafford, and Prince William County. If you're nearby but don't see your town listed, just ask.

Question 3

How much does it cost?

Accepted Answer

Virginia notarial fees are $10 per notarial act (the statutory maximum). A separate mobile/travel fee applies based on road distance from our Woodbridge base — see the Pricing section for the published tiers. Your exact travel fee is disclosed and agreed upon before the notary is dispatched.

Question 4

Do I need to appear in person?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Every signer must personally appear before the notary and present valid identification. For eligible transactions, Remote Online Notarization (RON) may allow you to appear by live video instead — contact us to check eligibility.

Question 5

What identification do I need?

Accepted Answer

A valid, unexpired government-issued photo ID — such as a driver's license, state ID, or passport. The name on your ID should match the document being notarized.

Question 6

Should I sign the document beforehand?

Accepted Answer

No. Please do not sign until you're in front of the notary. The notary must witness the signing (or your acknowledgment of it) for the notarization to be valid.

Question 7

Can a notary give me legal advice?

Accepted Answer

No. A notary public cannot provide legal advice or tell you which document or notarial act you need. If you're unsure, please consult a qualified attorney. We're happy to notarize documents you've prepared.

Question 8

Do you offer Remote Online Notarization (RON)?

Accepted Answer

Remote Online Notarization may be available for eligible transactions, subject to applicable Virginia and technology requirements. It lets you complete the notarization by secure live video. Reach out and we'll confirm whether RON fits your document.

Question 9

Can you help with loan signings?

Accepted Answer

Yes. As an NNA Certified Loan Signing Agent, we provide signing assistance for loan and real-estate document packages. Title companies, escrow, lenders, signing services, attorneys, and borrowers are all welcome to reach out.

Question 10

Are evening and weekend appointments available?

Accepted Answer

Often, yes. Important documents don't always arrive during business hours, so evening and weekend appointments may be available depending on scheduling and location. Additional fees may apply.

Question 11

What if I need to cancel?

Accepted Answer

Cancelling before the notary departs is free. If the notary has already departed, or in the case of a no-show, actual reasonable travel expenses incurred may apply. Please let us know as early as you can.
