Notarize a POA the right way, the first time
A power of attorney allows someone to act on your behalf. Because banks, healthcare providers, government agencies, and other organizations may closely review how the document was executed, proper notarization can help prevent rejection, questions, and costly delays.

Frequently asked
Answers to common questions
What is a durable power of attorney?+
A POA that remains in effect even if the person granting it (the principal) becomes incapacitated. Most family financial POAs are durable.
Does a POA need witnesses in Virginia?+
Under the Virginia Uniform Power of Attorney Act, a POA signed and notarized is presumed valid. Many practitioners still add two disinterested witnesses for extra protection, especially on financial POAs.
Can you notarize a POA for someone in the hospital?+
Yes, this is one of our most common hospital calls. See our Hospital Notary service.
Can a POA be notarized online?+
In many cases, yes, using Remote Online Notarization. Some receiving parties (like foreign governments or certain banks) still require in-person notarization; we can help you confirm.
Does the agent (the person receiving authority) need to sign?+
Typically not in front of a notary, but the principal (person granting authority) always does.
