During your appointment, I’ll introduce myself, verify your ID, walk you through each document in your loan package, witness your signatures, and answer general questions about the process. I do not provide legal advice but will ensure all documents are completed and returned promptly. 

Most signings take between 45 minutes to an hour, depending on the type of loan and how many signers are involved. I’ll always allocate enough time to ensure you're comfortable and not rushed.

A CNTDA specializes in delivering and overseeing the signing of estate planning documents, including Declaration of Trust, Asset Documents, California Certificate of Trust, Pour-Over Will, General Durable Power of Attorney, and Advanced Health Care Directive to name a few. I ensure these documents are executed properly, witnessing signatures, and notarizing when required. 

Unlike standard notarizations, a CNTDA handles multi-document estate packages. This service includes document presentation, understanding the structure of trusts, and coordinating signings that often involve multiple parties such as attorneys, trustees, and family members. It requires advanced specialized training and legal understanding—without providing legal advice. 

Absolutely. I routinely conduct trust signings at residences, senior living communities, hospitals, and hospice facilities. I bring a calm, professional approach to make the process smooth and respectful for all involved. 

iPEN allows a notary to perform notarizations using a secure electronic platform, while still being physically present with the signer. Instead of signing with ink on paper, both the notary and the client sign digitally using approved software and hardware. 

Yes. California permits in-person electronic notarization, provided the notary and signer are physically together during the process, and all signatures and seals are applied electronically using state-compliant technology. 

No. BK’s MOTARY~NOTARY will provide the necessary device and software during your appointment. You’ll simply follow prompts on the screen to sign and complete your notarization safely and securely. 

An Apostille is a certificate issued by the California Secretary of State that authenticates the signature of a public official on a document for use in another country. You’ll need an Apostille if your notarized document is being sent to a foreign country that is part of the Hague Convention.

With the exception of the actual issuance of the Apostille, we offer complete Apostille services—from notarizing your documents to submitting them to the appropriate government agency and returning them to you, ensuring they meet international requirements.

Processing time depends on whether you choose standard or expedited service. Standard service may take several business days, while expedited options are available for quicker turnaround. We’ll discuss timing with you based on your specific needs.

A Field Service Inspector is responsible for verifying property condition, occupancy, or business operations on behalf of banks, insurance companies, and other organizations. This includes taking photos, checking compliance, or completing standard reports. 

Field inspections are typically requested by lenders, mortgage companies, insurance agencies, and property managers. The goal is to confirm asset conditions, validate information, or document changes for compliance or recordkeeping.

Trained and experienced in the field, we provide reliable, well-documented reports, photo evidence, and timely communication to help organizations get the accurate on-the-ground insights they need.

RON allows notaries to notarize documents remotely using audio-visual technology over the internet. The signer and notary are in different locations, but connected via a secure video platform. 

While California has passed legislation to authorize RON, it is not yet available to commissioned notaries in the state.

Under Senate Bill 696 (SB 696), signed into law in 2023, California notaries will eventually be permitted to perform remote online notarizations. However, the law will not be fully operative until the Secretary of State completes the required technology infrastructure—or by January 1, 2030, whichever comes first.

Absolutely! Until then, California Government Code § 8206 and related statutes continue to require a physical, in-person appearance for all notarial acts. As such, I do not offer RON services at this time.
