Notary Public
A Notary Public is an official of integrity appointed by state government —typically by the secretary of state — to serve the public as an impartial witness in performing a variety of official fraud-deterrent acts related to the signing of important documents. These official acts are called notarizations, or notarial acts.
See the types of notary work below.

Acknowledgments
The purpose of an acknowledgment is to ensure that the signer of a document is who he or she claims to be and has voluntarily signed the document. Acknowledgments often are needed for documents concerning valuable assets, such as deeds, mortgages, deeds of trust, and powers of attorney..
Jurats, Verifications, and Affidavits
For jurats, verifications and affidavits, the signer must appear in person before you and sign the document in your presence. You must then administer an oath or affirmation and have the signer speak aloud his or her promise that the statements in the document are true. The choice between an oath or affirmation should be made by the signer.
Oaths/Affirmationst
In some cases, you may simply need a notary to administer an oath or affirmation orally, rather than as part of a jurat, verification, affidavit or other written document. The purpose of administering a verbal oath or affirmation is, again, to compel a client to truthfulness.
Signature Witnessing
A number of states authorize Notaries to perform a signature witnessing. With this notarial act, we can certify that the individual appearing before us is who he or she claims to be, and the signature on the record is the signature of the individual.
