Why You Need A Top Notary
What happens if a notary makes a mistake? The National Notary Association indicates that even the slightest mistake could have dire consequences, and the notarized document could get rejected. That binding contract or agreement could be null and voided. These mistakes could result in late fees and penalties for the client. In turn, the Notary Public may have exposed themselves to civil litigation. Selecting the correct Notary Public truly matters.
