Good to know

How much does it cost to get a Power of Attorney notarized?

Standard notary fees for a Power of Attorney range from $2 to $15 per signature, as dictated by state statutory caps. Mobile notary services usually charge an additional travel fee between $30 and $80 depending on distance and time of day. If the notary provides required witnesses, an extra fee of $10 to $25 per witness typically applies.

Can a notary execute or sign a Power of Attorney after death?

No, a Power of Attorney legally terminates the moment the principal passes away, meaning it cannot be signed or notarized after death. Posthumous legal authority shifts strictly to an executor or personal representative appointed by a probate court or named in a valid last will and testament.

Do I need extra witnesses present when notarizing a Power of Attorney?

Witness requirements vary by state law and document type; for example, healthcare or medical POAs frequently require two disinterested witnesses alongside the notary stamp. If your state requires witnesses, they must not be named as agents or beneficiaries in the document, though many mobile notary agencies can provide disinterested witnesses upon request.
