Notary
The main tasks of a Notary is to witness and authenticate signatures, administer oaths, verify signatures and take affidavits. Their duty is to verify the identities of each signer on a document. This is done to protect against fraudulent acts that may otherwise void the notarized document. The notary public typically requests each signer to provide identification that verifies their identity. If the client fails to provide an acceptable form of identification, the notary public is legally obligated to refuse the service.
The code of Virginia specifies five basic notarial acts:
1) Taking Acknowledgments
2) Administering Oaths
3) Certifying affidavits
4) Certifying depositions
5) Certifying “true copies” of documents*
* Virginia notaries are not authorized to certify copies of birth, death, or marriage certificates. Only the Division of Vital Records/Statistics may perform such a certification. If you need a certified copy of this type of document, you must request it from the state in which the individual was born. As a fraud prevention measure, many states require that the request form be notarized – a Virginia notary can notarize your signature on this form. Virginia notaries are not authorized to perform marriage ceremonies.

Some document transactions require that the signer make a formal declaration before a notary, thereby “acknowledging” execution (signing) of the document. Specifically, the signer verbally acknowledges that:
• The signer understands the contents and purpose of the document
• The signature is his/her own
• The document was signed willingly (no coercion)
• The signer understands the contents and purpose of the document
• The signature is his/her own
• The document was signed willingly (no coercion)
We are not attorney’s, therefore, by law, we cannot give legal advice, guidance regarding your transaction or related documents, or interpret the contents of those documents. Doing so would be an unauthorized practice of law, subjecting us to possible fines, loss of notary public commission, or possibly prison.
Mortgage Field Inspection Services
A mortgage field inspector conducts collateral inspections of mortgaged properties for financial institutions. As a mortgage field inspector, our duties include taking digital photos of houses, apartment buildings, and even construction sites to collect information. After the property is inspected, we prepare a report for the financial company describing the state of the property—its occupancy and whether it is in disrepair, for instance.
