Notary Public for Wills and Trusts in Virginia
In Virginia, a notary public is necessary for estate planning documents such as trusts and wills. Blue Mountain Notary provides an excellent and professional notary public who fulfils your requirements. A will does not need to be notarized in order to be legally binding, although notarizing a self-proving document might speed up the probate process. Since this affidavit confirms the validity of the will, witness testimony is not necessary. On the other hand, notarization is typically required for living trusts to be effective. In Virginia, notaries charge for each signature in addition to any possible travel costs. The notary public should fill out the notarial certificate, verify the identity of the signer, and ensure that the signature is genuine.
