For Individuals & Families

Personal documents, handled with care.

Most families need a notary a few times across a lifetime — estate documents, a power of attorney for an aging parent, paperwork for a child traveling abroad, a property document for a transaction. The work is usually quiet and straightforward, but it tends to come up at moments that already feel complicated. The goal is to make this part easy.

What Brings People Here

Common situations.

Most appointments fall into one of these patterns. If yours doesn’t fit cleanly into any of them, it probably still fits — happy to confirm in a quick email or call.

Estate planning documents

Wills, trusts, durable powers of attorney, healthcare directives, HIPAA authorizations. Coordinated witness scheduling when needed. Comfortable with both attorney-prepared and self-completed packages.

Caring for an aging parent

Powers of attorney, healthcare directives, and end-of-life paperwork — often coordinated at a hospital, hospice, or senior living facility. Patient with the realities of these settings.

Property & real estate

Powers of attorney for a traveling spouse, deeds and property transfers between family members, FSBO transactions, and personal property documentation outside a formal closing.

International documents

Documents traveling abroad — marriage abroad, dual citizenship, foreign property, study or work overseas. Notarization plus apostille handling through the Texas Secretary of State.

Adoption paperwork

Domestic and international adoption documents, often a stack at a time, often on the agency’s timeline. Coordinated with the patience these processes require.

One-off documents

Affidavits, sworn statements, vehicle titles, parental travel consents, single-document needs that come up unexpectedly. Quick appointments, no fuss.

What Working Together Looks Like

A simple rhythm.

A typical engagement starts with a brief email or call describing the document, where you’d like the appointment to happen, and any timing constraints. Most appointments are scheduled within a day or two — sometimes the same day for urgent situations. Quoting happens upfront, in writing, with no surprises at the appointment.

Mobile means the notary comes to you — your home, your parent’s facility, your attorney’s office, a coffee shop near work. Most appointments take 20–45 minutes depending on document complexity. The signer needs a current government-issued photo ID; if witnesses are required by the document, those are coordinated in advance. Payment happens at the appointment or shortly after.

For sensitive situations — bedside appointments, end-of-life paperwork, family dynamics around a major decision — there’s no rush. Quiet competence is the right register, and that’s the register you’ll get.

A Note on Cost

Transparent, in writing, no surprises.

Pricing for personal documents is straightforward and published openly. A standard mobile appointment runs $55 plus $10 per Texas notarial act, with $2 per mile beyond the 15-mile primary service area. Estate planning packages run $225–$275. Apostille work has its own published tier structure depending on how much help you want. Specialty appointments — hospital, hospice, senior living, after-hours — carry transparent named premiums.

Pro bono notarial work is available when the fee would be a meaningful barrier — for example, people in domestic violence situations, in homeless or transitional housing, or otherwise navigating real financial hardship. Just ask. Loan signings and commercial work are excluded.
