Why use Dash Notary? From Julia Kappel, RE Investor

Tonie may have saved me $200,000 in an hour last weekend! I was in the process of signing a contract to purchase a house when a minor question came up with the listing agent. Tonie, who was present as a witness and notary, could have just allowed us to work it out ourselves but instead she facilitated the discussion by asking some neutral but very important questions. As the talks went on, it became clear that there were several underlying issues with this transaction that could become a problem in the future such as claims of fraud on prior transactions and the ability of the seller to make sound decisions.

Had Tonie not asked the questions she did, in the way that she did, I would not have known about these issues. Tonie's former real estate experience and her ability to understand the ramifications of what was being said by the listing agent and the seller in casual conversation led her to step up and refuse to notarize any documents until these issues could be resolved. Had she not been willing to do that, I may have completed the transaction and later lost the house in a legal battle. I can't say enough about how impressed I was with Tonie's professionalism and skills and how much I appreciate her saving my bacon! I'll be using her services much more in the future!

Three Flawed Notary Practices That Put You At Risk

Flawed Notary practices can put you at serious risk. No matter how urgently a document needs to be notarized, or how demanding a client or employer is, violating the essential rules of notarization leaves you exposed to lawsuits. Here are three of the most egregious practices to avoid:

Notarizing without the signer being present. Notarizing without the signer being present is prohibited in all U.S. states and territories. Any request to notarize a signature where the signer isn’t present to verify his or her wishes is an open invitation to fraud — and leaves the Notary to bear full responsibility against allegations of negligence resulting from the signer’s absence.

Failure to identify a signer. Every signer must be identified by the Notary according to statutory rules. A signer lacking satisfactory evidence  of identity is not safe to notarize for — without satisfactory evidence of identity, the Notary has no way of knowing whether the signer is an impostor posing as the person named in the document.

Allowing someone else to use your seal. The Notary’s seal must remain under the Notary’s control at all times, and only the Notary is authorized to affix the seal impression to certificate wording. Allowing an unauthorized person to use your seal is against the law and enables falsification of documents — but if your seal was utilized, you can still be held responsible for any problems resulting from letting another person use the seal.
