Mountain View Notary FAQs
How much does a notary cost in Mountain View?
The California notary fee is $15 per notarized signature (increasing to $20 on January 1, 2027), plus my standard Mountain View travel fee of $85. Estate plan signings are priced the same way, per signature plus travel. Additional fees may apply for hospital visits, waiting time, weekends, or after-hours service, and your total is quoted before the appointment is confirmed.
Can a notary come to El Camino Hospital?
Yes. I provide mobile notary services at hospitals, assisted living communities, and care facilities in Mountain View. Please call (650) 675-7760 first. The signer must be alert, willing to sign, able to communicate directly with the notary, and have acceptable identification.
Should I sign my document before the notary arrives?
Unless your document preparer instructs otherwise, wait until the appointment. For a jurat, California law requires you to sign in the presence of the notary. Some acknowledgments may already be signed before the appointment, but the signer must still personally appear before the notary.
Can a notary give legal advice or prepare my document?
No. A California notary public is not an attorney and cannot provide legal advice, choose the notarial certificate, or prepare legal documents. Please have your document complete before the appointment.
What ID do I need for a notarization in California?
A government-issued photo ID that is current or was issued within the past five years, such as a driver's license, state ID, or passport. The name on your ID should reasonably match the name on the document.
