If you need to notarize a power of attorney (POA), you might wonder about the process and associated costs. On Call & Mobile Notary Services offers reliable and professional notarization tailored to your needs. Let’s explore the cost of notarizing a power of attorney, what makes our service unique, and why it’s worth choosing us for this critical task.
What is a Power of Attorney?
A power of attorney is a legal document that grants one person (the agent) the authority to act on behalf of another (the principal) in specific matters, such as financial or healthcare decisions. To ensure the document’s validity, notarization is often required—and in Wisconsin, it’s highly recommended.
How Much Does It Cost to Notarize a Power of Attorney?
The cost to notarize a power of attorney varies based on several factors, including the complexity of the document and the added risks for the notary. At On Call & Mobile, we provide transparent pricing and superior service. Here’s what you should know:
- Added Security Steps:
- We provided additional security features not provided by other businesses or notaries to help create supporting legal validation if needed in court.
