Think All Notaries Are the Same? Think Again

Let’s clear something up — not all notaries are created equal.
Sure, we all have commissions, stamps, and that fancy journal. But the difference between one notary and the next? It’s in the details. The training. The experience. The care.
Some notaries simply sign and seal — no questions asked. Others (the good ones) take time to verify identity properly, guide you through the type of notarization you need, and make sure you aren’t making a legal mistake you’ll regret later.
Ask anyone who’s ever had a document rejected at closing or delayed in court — notary errorsare expensive.Missed signatures, incorrect certificates, or incomplete fields can cause real headaches.
And don’t get me started on the notaries who ghost clients, cancel last-minute, or forget their stamp. (Yes, it happens more than you'd think.)
💬 I once had a client whose last notary stamped the wrong spot — on a loan document. That mistake delayed their closing and cost them extra fees. One seal. One slip-up. Hundreds of dollars.
So no, all notaries are not the same. And choosing the right one matters more than people think.
