Overview
About this service
Families and attorneys often need notarized documents from someone who is incarcerated, a power of attorney so a spouse can manage finances, an affidavit for a legal matter, or an authorization to handle property.
We know the intake procedures, dress codes, and identification rules at Hampton Roads correctional facilities, and we work with the facility staff and the family to make each visit efficient and respectful.
