Common scenarios & your rights
ScenarioFamily abroad email a power of attorney and ask you to sign it tonight so a property sale can close this week.
Your Rights
- You are entitled to understand every document before signing. A notary confirms identity and witnesses signatures; the notary does not vouch for the wisdom of the deal.
- Documents for use abroad often need authentication, an apostille, or legalization after notarization.
- Receiving organizations set their own requirements, and confirming them first prevents rejected documents.
What to do: Bring the complete, unsigned document, valid photo ID, and the recipient's written instructions. Ask questions before ink, not after.
Watch: Notary Public in plain language
