About
My name is James W. Guido. I am an Army Veteran and a certified Notary Public and Loan Signing Agent, dedicated to delivering professional and reliable notarial services. I am committed to upholding the integrity of legal documents and ensuring the authenticity of every signature. My goal is to assist you with all your notarization needs efficiently and accurately.
As a Notary Public and Loan Signing Agent, I have successfully completed rigorous training through the National Notary Association's and Notary2Pro’s certification programs, equipping me to perform my duties in compliance with Washington State laws and regulations. I maintain a clear background check and am both licensed and bonded. Whether you require notarization for real estate transactions, legal contracts, affidavits, or other documents, you can rely on my comprehensive expertise and meticulous attention to detail.
I recognize that confidentiality, precision, and prompt service are critical in all notarial actions. You can be assured that I will guide you through each step of the notarization process, verify identification, and affix my official seal with the highest level of professionalism.
Based in Olympia, WA, I include travel within 20 miles in my service fees. For locations beyond this distance, there is an additional charge of $0.725 per mile for the remaining round-trip mileage.

I am so pleased with the ease of locating and enlisting the assistance of a notary in our area. James provided prompt replies. He arrived on time and explained the process with patience and professionalism while putting us at ease. I would heartily recommend Valor Notary Services and would use them again if the need arose.
