In the midst of coronavirus (COVID-19) and quarantine mandates, Your Notary Next Door continues to effectively notarize documents for clients in the Dallas-Fort Worth Area.
We have placed guidelines to reduce exposure during a notarization while still satisfying the statutory requirements for a legal notarization:
- Wearing gloves and a mask
- Eliminating physical contact. (Not shaking hands)
- Not sharing pens. We suggest to every party to bring their own and sanitize after usage or gift them one.
- Keeping a safe distance from the principal (minimum of six feet).
- Arranging the documents so each document needing to be notarized is grouped together to reduce the amount of time being spent with the signer
