Chris was a lifesaver. After my girlfriend broke both of her feet, we needed up needing to have two documents notarized, and she couldn’t get out of bed. Chris came to the rescue and was punctual, extremely communicative, and very compassionate. If you need a mobile notary, I would highly recommend Chris! He truly was a lifesaver.

Dear Shawn;
Thank you so much for the kind words in your review. It was a pleasure bringing my mobile notary services to your girlfriend, Emilie's home after she was released from the hospital, but could not get out of bed, having just been released from the hospital with leg issues in the past 2 weeks I can relate to that same situation as well and was so happy I could bring my compassionate, punctual, and very communicative services to you.
When in need of Notarial services in the future just remember Bradenton Notarial Servies, your one stop service brought to you at a place of convenience.

Bradenton Notary Services's reply
Dear Chris:
Thank you for the great review. It was a pleasure and quite fun doing the Field Inspection work for you. Other than being a typically hot Florida afternoon the work went well and I was able to get lots of great pictures and videos for you to accomplish the job in less than one hours time. I look forward to working with you and Total Cash Home Buyers again.

We didnt connect for a few days d/t both our incredibly busy schedules, but when we finally got together Christopher was great: had all the paperwork ready, politely listened to my report of a crappy week & day, was professional throughout, but bent enough to laugh @ some of my silly stories. It didnt take too long to finish business. I did not end my crappy day on a sour note; he helped me end it on a pleasant & productive note. I would use him again.
Bradenton Notary Services's reply
Thank you very much for such a colorful and honest review, Sue. I enjoyed hearing your stories, and it made the experience even more worthwhile as I conducted my notarial services and completed your acknowledgment for the installation of the new air conditioner you are having installed. I enjoyed working with you and appreciate the 5-star review of my detailed, thorough work.

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Pricing per notary stamp is regulated by the state of Florida at $10 per stamp or $25 for a Remote Online Notarization. All other charges one incurs as a Mobile Notary help cover the cost of training, gas, insurance (both car and business), administrative fees, and the time the notary spends assisting the client. We will attempt to provide you with an accurate quote; however, if circumstances change, the cost may be adjusted. All costs will be transparent before the transaction takes place.
For your and my protection, I carry a $25K Bond, I have $100K Notary Errors and Omissions Insurance, and $250K Loan Signing Agent Errors and Omissions Insurance.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
When working with a new customer, I like to be as open and transparent about what is happening as possible. All costs and fees will be discussed prior to any work being conducted, so that the client has the utmost knowledge of what will proceed. There will be no unexpected expenses that pop up at the last moment.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have been trained and certified by the National Notary Association as a Loan/Notary Signing Agent. This credential is among the highest available, and most signing companies prefer it over others. I am also trained as an Apostille agent through the Lawrence Institute for Notaries in Philadelphia, PA. I practice and continue my education as a member of the American Guild of Notaries Public and many Notary Communities online, with constant certifications available.
