Description

Are you a notary that wants to offer more than just loan signing services in your business? Estate Planning is a niche of notary work that not many specialize in. Notaries often perform notarizations for wills, trusts, powers of attorney, and healthcare directives. Do you actually know the meaning and purposes of these documents that you notarize? These documents are often referred to as estate planning documents. Will it surprise you to know that some require notarization and some do not? This course is for the commissioned notary public in any state to become more familiar with the documents used in estate planning, their purposes, and benefits. This is not a state specific course.
