FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Standard fee includes a travel fee plus a fee for each notarized signature ($15 each). For Thumbtack users, I charge a minimal travel fee to meet you at your location (home, office, coffee shop). Travel fee starts at $35 for up to 15 miles from zip code 92503 in Riverside, CA. Additional travel fee applies after 15 miles. Additional location fee for care facilities, hospitals, and jails. If we meet at the Starbucks located at 3312 La Sierra Ave, Riverside, CA 92503, the travel fee will be waived. I am happy to offer competitive pricing so if you are looking for a specific price, please let me know and I will try to work with you.
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
When working with a new customer, I make sure to gather all of the necessary information to ensure that the notarization process will be smooth. It is important for document signers to have a valid photo ID that is not expired. If this is not the case, we can discuss options for identification. Additionally, I screen for mental capacity of the signer and ensure that the signer speaks English since I will need to be able to communicate directly with them. It is important to confirm that the signer has the necessary documents to be notarized and answer any questions that arise. As a Notary Public, I am not authorized to answer questions that pertain to the law so I am sure to explain that to my new customers.
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I am an actively commissioned as a Notary Public by the California Secretary of State since 2020. I participate in ongoing continuing education and networking opportunities to ensure that I am knowledgeable about California notary law. In addition, I hold certifications from the National Notary Association and Loan Signing System as a Notary Signing Agent.
