My name is Debra Noble and I have been commissioned by the State of California as a Notary Public since 2001. I am bonded and I’m an active member of the National Notary Association.
Notary Publics must be of proven integrity appointed by the State of California to conduct notary services in the State of California and to serve the public as an impartial witness in taking acknowledgements, administering oaths and affirmations, and performing other acts authorized by law.
As a Notary Public, I am a public official whose primary function is to serve as an impartial witness and to authenticate the signature(s) on contracts, deeds, trusts, loans, power of attorneys and other legal documents. The reason for documents to be notarized is to help protect the public interest, as a deterrent to fraud. As a commissioned notary, I have to follow certain state requirements before I can place my seal on the documents. Part of it is to make an inquiry of the signers and that they have entered into agreements knowingly and willingly.
A Notary does NOT give any legal advice regarding any documents signed. Only an attorney can give you legal advice regarding your documents.
