Category: What a Signing Service Can do for You

Living Wills and the Mobile Notary

It’s a subject we don’t want to think about, but eventually we have to, Living Wills. Hopefully we all have our affairs in order, but sometimes we don’t. We are hesitant to sound crass, but Sunshine Signing is there for you whenever you need to get your affairs in order.

What is a Living Will?

If you’re either unconscious or otherwise unable to communicate, a living will tells others what treatments you’d like—or want to avoid. Typically, a living will comes into play when you’re no longer able to participate in decision-making and hope to prevent the prolonging of an inevitable death through artificial means.

The Balance

Living wills are one of the most serious documents you need. They are often accompanied by a Durable Power of Attorney. You designate someone to make decisions for you through a Power of Attorney and specify the type of decisions they are allowed to make.

A living will does not take effect if you have a temporary injury. For example you took a shot to the head an received a serious concussion. Maybe from something like a car accident or falling off a bicycle. You make decisions about potential end-of-life services, considering the extremely limited options available.

Living Wills and the Mobile Notary

Are There Any Rules for Living Wills?

As a precaution, there may be some rules in your state regarding a living will. But most states will recognize them if you are across state borders. There are places online where you can download templates for a living will. Still, we would be careful to make sure that it comes from an attorney, and not just some random person.

You need to address all potential circumstances in your living will for it to be effective when needed. It would probably be wise to consult a lawyer. At the very least we recommend you check several websites. At least one or two that are relevant to your state. You need to make sure everything you are required to have is there.

When Should I Get a Living Will?

We would recommend as soon as possible, unless you are under the age of eighteen, or do not have a legal guardian. Make sure your family and loved ones know of your intent. Arguments among members is the last thing in the world you want in your time of need. And, unfortunately, they are known to get ugly.

Being pro-active is the best way to go. Unfortunately, none of us can predict the future. None of us can truly know or predict what life has to throw at us. We all wish for the best, Sunshine wishes the best for you, but we all must be prepared for any situation.

Why do I need a Mobile Notary?

The signer must sign a living will document(s) in person. An online notary is not able to perform those duties. A notary must be present, and in many cases the best choice is to have a mobile notary who can come to you.

In the worst situations, time is of the essence. Sunshine Signing can have a notary to you in four hours or less, even if you live in a rural location. You can rest assured our mobile notaries are the most professional in the business. And they work hard to ensure every signing is the most important signing they’ve ever done. Because they understand how important it is to you.

Everyone is Important to Sunshine

Sunshine is there for you in the best of times and the worst of times. You need someone who you can trust in any situation. Our mobile notaries can meet you just about anywhere, from your home, or god forbid, the hospital.

If you don’t have a living will, and probably a durable power of attorney to accompany it, now is the time to take action. And when you need it notarized, just remember, Sunshine is there for you.

Why You Need Both Online Notaries and Mobile Notaries

As the world appears to be heading more to remote notarizations, you may ask why you need both Online Notaries and Mobile Notaries? Don’t you wish you could just choose one and run with it?

In a quickly changing landscape it is understandable.

But, there are quite a few reasons that is not going to happen. And you need to understand the how’s and why’s that will affect your business. Or, why it does not have to be a big deal, because you have a partner at your side who will take that off of your plate. And let you focus on your core business.

Because, at the end of the day, we all want to focus on our core business, the part that drives the most revenue. And have a partner who can still give you a positive return on investment.

Not All Signings Will Be Remote

The laws are quickly changing, but some things will remain the same. At the end of the day, even once remote signings become more prevalent, some signings will still need to be done in person. You have attorney states, as well as certain types of signings, like living wills and wills, that will have to be done in person.

Notary Search

A notary search can be frustrating and time consuming.

People performing a notary search can easily find the process to be more than they want to manage, especially in business. Sure, you can find notary directories online, but you’ll find yourself calling way too many of them to be worth your time.

So, I have a list of notaries near me and I pick up the phone and start calling them.  I quickly find out many of them are booked, so I keep calling.

And I quickly realize the difficulty in finding time to arrange myself and the other party, as well as the notary, all at the same time.  Sure, I can find a time for me and the notary, or for me and the other party, but finding a time that works for all of us is like sticking a square peg in a round hole.

Then I realize that I have multiple signings at different times and places.  And I get covered in dread as I pick up the phone and start dialing some more.

And soon I realize that I am wasting too much productivity doing a notary search I really don’t have the time or inclination to do.

Start Your Notary Search

Wasted Productivity and Time

So now I’ve buried half the day into a notary search I thought would take ten or fifteen minutes.  And I didn’t have the time to pay attention to more pressing issues at hand.

So I throw my hands in the air and say this is not working!

Seriously, I:

  • Found a notary directory easily enough
  • Picked up the phone and dialed and dialed trying to find the right notary
  • Then I had to deal with the other party in the signing and arrange a time with them as well
  • And this cycle went around in circles, just like my head, as this is not my forte at all

Perform Your Notary Search More Efficiently

And then I finally found Sunshine Signing.  They are a mobile and online notary service that has tens of thousands of notaries across the country.

And better yet, they handle all of the scheduling!

I just give them a time and place and they send a notary to me.  All of that hassle out the window.  All the productivity and time wasted is gone and I can focus on the core portion of my business.

Better yet, they ensure my notary is qualified and has a full background check.  They verify the notary has valid licensing and insurance.

And did I mention, they bring the notary to me, instead of me bringing myself to the notary.

The next time you perform a notary search, start it with Sunshine.

Mobile Notary

A mobile notary is an entrepreneur that makes everyone’s life easier by traveling to a signing for a document that needs notarizing.  Many of them work nights and weekends and are able to work around the schedule of your business or personal life.  They run their business out of their homes and vehicles, and are ready for even last minute closings.

It does not matter if it is a place of business, a home, job site, even your local diner or airport, they will meet you wherever you need to get a document notarized.

Finding a 24 Hour Notary Can be Frustrating

Why Would Anyone Need a 24 Hour Notary?

You are the one here, so why don’t you tell us!

Seriously, though, the economy has modernized and people are working outside of conventional hours more and more.  They might be closing real estate deals or only be in town in a tight window to get documents signed.

They might not work conventional hours and need personal or family documents signed.  It is also becoming more prevalent for neighbors and small business people to do after hours signings, because it is easier to gather all necessary parties at those times.

So there are a lot of reasons someone might need a 24 hour notary.

What Documents Can I Get Notarized at 2 O’Clock in the Morning?

It really does not matter. While most people are doing real estate deals, others are finalizing loans.

Power of Attorney, Structured Settlement, an IOU to your sketchy nephew, you can get them all done.

Sunshine Signing can notarize any legal document with a 24 hour notary. And do not forget the 7/365. Even on a holiday, if it needs to be done. A professional and certified notary will ensure it is done right.

The Rise of 24 Hour Notary Services

It is a simple case of supply and demand. The client (that’s you) demands it, and the signing service (that’s us) supplies it.

One big market that has emerged is people closing deals on the west coast before they catch the red eye. There is no time to wait until the next day. The plane is leaving now, and accordingly the deal must be closed now.

In this case, there is no tomorrow. But, there are a network of notaries willing to meet you anywhere you find convenient to get that deal done. And that network works with Sunshine Signing.

The Digital Revolution

Have social anxiety? Don’t like face to face interaction? We can handle that, too.

Sunshine’s network of notaries include online notaries as well. All you need is a computer with a good internet connection. The notarization process can occur completely online through a technology called remote online notarization, or RON for short. And a RON notary can also be a 24 hour notary.

Our signing service gives you all the options you desire. Just contact us and we can make it happen.

Why You Need a National Signing Service

When faced with the choice of using a single notary, versus using a national signing service, there are several things a business needs to consider.  Not least of which are staffing/availability of your notary.

One must also consider the culture of their company and if an on staff notary helps them achieve their mission statement.  And on top of it all, a business must always think and plan about the future, the prospect of growth, and how that will affect company operations.

When You Need a National Signing Service

Every business that needs documents signings has to make a choice on how to get the job done.  Here are a few key questions we have found companies need to ask when making the decision on getting a national signing service.

Does an on staff notary help the company reach its goals, without detracting from its core focus?

Especially for smaller companies, hiring is a big decision.  There are training, taxes, the bottom line, and the journey to find someone who is right for your team.  Then there is the fact they must be certified in every state you do business, or plan to do business.

If you only do a few signings in a local area, it might be the right decision for you.  But, you then have to weigh the cost/benefits to have them on your staff.

You can find an individual notary for your services, but what do you do when they aren’t available?  And is it a good use of company time to be tracking down notaries all the time?

Why You Need a National Signing Service

Technology Has Changed the Game

Remote Online Notarizations made their big debut during the pandemic. They seem simple, but business is rarely simple.

The fact is some documents must be done in person. Some docs need attorneys, while others are affected by the myriad of laws now across the United States.

So, why not let the industry leader manage that for you?

At the end of the day, you are going to realize you need both mobile and online notaries. So why not be with someone who offers that to start with. Add in our expedited document delivery and you have a true white glove service.

Is your company growing or primed for growth?

Growing a business is hard work.  It takes supreme effort across a range of company goals to achieve.

And it is a proud moment when you do it.

As your company grows, your needs for notary services grows with it.  You can no longer rely on an individual notary, so a national signing service becomes your best option.

Why?  Because you need to focus on the three things that makes your company tick!  And I bet hunting down notaries is not on that list.  So you go out and find someone who specializes in that, so you can focus on your core business and increased growth.

Are you looking to expand your hours?

In recent years, this has spread quickly in real estate, but also for signings involving individuals with 9-5 jobs.  In real estate, investors strike fast and they do the deals when they can be done.  This is often outside the range of normal business hours.

A national signing service have networks of notaries that are available after conventional hours.  So, if one is not available, they have twenty more that are.  So you never get stuck out of town, at the table, with no way to close.

In business, every minute means money.

Make a Sunshine Signing Connection

When your company is ready for a national notary service, you can rest assured that Sunshine will be there for you 24 hours a day, 7 days a week and 365 days a year.  We have notaries in big cities and rural areas.  We have networks of attorneys for states that require them.

When you need a signing done right, and a national signing service to stand behind it, you cannot go wrong with Sunshine Signing.

Where Can I Find a Notary?

Needless to say, you aren’t the first person to come to this page and ask “where can I find a Notary?”.

We say, in mother Russia, notary finds you.

That is quite tongue in cheek, but the fast paced business environment today often requires a notary come to you, and not the other way around.  Business is no longer tied to the old nine to five, and important signings can take place almost at any time.  Antiquated are the days when all parties to a document trudged their way to notary office, because nowadays no one has the time, and let’s face it, the notary in the office is probably out to lunch or closed.  It is just so much more convenient to have the notary come to your site so you can go about your business uninterrupted.
