How do I find a trustworthy notary?
Short answer
Look for a notary who states fees in advance, confirms what identification you need, carries errors and omissions coverage, and will not promise to bend a rule for you.
Full explanation
The clearest warning sign is a notary who offers to notarize without the signer present, accepts identification they should not, or offers advice on which document you need. QuitaDell verifies membership and profile completeness for the notaries listed in its directory.
