I need to have an affidavit notarized, but since I don't have access to the numerous notary publics you can find in law firms since I don't work in one any more, I have no idea where to go. Any suggestions? It's pretty time-sensitive. Thanks.
The bank you do business with will have a Notary and will probably provide the service for free. They may charge a few bucks though. Just go to the customer service desk.
I am a notary public, seriously. I never charge anything, but I doubt you would want to fly to Tennessee. I had to get a notary public license (or whatever you call it) because, guess what, I worked at a bank/credit union!
Nope. The way it worked was that my supervisor "nominated" me and the bank president agreed that I needed to be a notary public. So, they got a form with the county clerk's office and had me fill it out. Then at the next county commission meeting (or something like that) I was approved with a bunch of other people. Basically, if you are in good standing with the law, I don't think you will get turned down to be a notary public. You do have to pay a fee, which I think is for your "handles" (what you use to stamp your seal) as well as your bond (please don't ask me to explain what a bond is in this case or its purpose! ).
When we started our company in college, we needed a notary public. Sent $35 dollars to Austin, they sent us a stamp, and voila, one of our people is a notary public. I've thought about becomind one just for the hell of it . . .
