Frequently Asked Questions

Below is information relating to some of the common ways in which a Notaries services are required. Click on one of the links below to jump to that section.

What is Notaraization?

Notaraization is the process whereby a Notary certifies a document. Usually this is done by attaching a notarial certificate to the document. The notarial certificate contains statements of fact or law in relation to the document being certified.

What is a signing agent?

A  signing agent is a public notary who is expert in loan closing documents. A lender, title company, or escrow service may hire a signing agent to handle getting documents delivered, signed, or processed efficiently and on time.

Do I need an appointment?

Yes, although we are sometimes able to accommodate walk in clients it is preferable to book an appointment in advance in order to ensure a Notary will be available to see you. This also allows us to ensure we have all necessary documents in advance and that the appointment is as brief as possible for you.

Why do I need to bring proof of identity and proof of address?

One of the Notary’s fundamental duties is to properly identify his or her client. This requirement is laid down by our practice rules and legislation.

How much will it cost?

This will depend on the document being certified and exactly what the notary is required to do. Our notaries will be happy to discuss this with you prior to your appointment (please note it will often be necessary to see the document in advance in order to provide an accurate fee estimate).

Where do you provide your services?

We will come to you at a place that is convenient for you. This can be your home or office, a restaurant, or even a nursing home, hospital, or federal, state or county correctional facility. If you prefer to come to our Toledo, OH office during business hours, this can also of course be arranged. Robison Notary Services specializes in providing prompt and convenient attention that lets you focus on your client.

What documents do you Notarize?

Robison Notary offers a full range of Notarial Services. We notarize documents for use in all countries around the world, often in a foreign language or in a bilingual format.

Do you notarize on weekends?

Yes, we provide Toledo Area mobile notary and apostille service on weekend afternoons and early evening (both Saturday and Sunday)…and even most holidays. The  Toledo Area offices are not open on weekends for  apostille processing, but we can get things started by having a Robison Notary meet you during the weekend or receiving the documents by FedEx on a Saturday.

Can I Come To Your Location?

Yes, by appointment only.

Our office is located at 327 12th Street, Toledo, Ohio 43604. Since most of our appointments are outside our office
if you walk in without an appointment, a notary may not be on site or available to perform a notarization.
