Signing parties must be present at notarization
Sometimes, people think that it would be more convenient to pre-sign their document and send it to us for Notarization with a friend or family member.
However, the law is very specific. A notary public can only notarize a document when he/she actually witnesses the signing party’s signature. Unfortunately, there are no exceptions to this rule. All signing parties must be physically present so that the notary can verify their identities and signatures.
The good news is that we are centrally located, near Square One, in Mississauga. We also offer Walk in Service, so you don’t have to waste time making appointments or waiting around in your lawyer’s office. The process is quick and simple.
