Question 1

What is a mobile notary?

Accepted Answer

A mobile notary travels to a location that works for you — your home, office, a business, a healthcare facility, or another agreed meeting place — to perform notarial acts, instead of requiring you to visit a fixed storefront. PAPER & SIGN brings appointment-based notary and document services to you throughout Fayette County and South Metro Atlanta.

Question 2

What areas do you serve?

Accepted Answer

PAPER & SIGN focuses on Fayette County, Georgia — including Fayetteville, Peachtree City, Tyrone, and Brooks — and the broader South Metro Atlanta area. Appointments in surrounding communities and counties may be available depending on scheduling and travel distance.

Question 3

How much does a notarization cost?

Accepted Answer

The Georgia statutory fee for a notarial act is $2 per notarial act. That government-regulated fee is shown separately from PAPER & SIGN's own mobile-service charges, such as travel, appointment, printing, scan-back, waiting-time, appearance, and signing charges. All applicable charges are disclosed and confirmed before your appointment.

Question 9

What identification should I bring?

Accepted Answer

Identification requirements depend on the notarial act and applicable law. PAPER & SIGN will provide general appointment instructions, but please contact the business before your appointment if you are unsure whether your identification is acceptable.

Question 10

Should I sign the document before the appointment?

Accepted Answer

Do not guess. Some notarial acts involve signing in the notary's presence while others have different requirements. Follow the instructions from the document's issuing or receiving party, and ask before signing if you are unsure.

Question 11

Can the notary explain what my document means?

Accepted Answer

No. PAPER & SIGN is not a law firm and cannot provide legal advice or explain the legal effect of a document. If you need to understand a document's legal meaning, please consult a licensed attorney or the document's issuing or receiving organization.

Question 12

Can PAPER & SIGN tell me which notarization I need?

Accepted Answer

Choosing the specific notarial act or certificate is typically a decision for the signer or the receiving institution, because selecting it for you could constitute legal advice. If you are unsure, ask the party requesting the document which notarial act they require.

Question 13

Does PAPER & SIGN prepare legal documents?

Accepted Answer

No. PAPER & SIGN provides notarial and related document services and does not draft or prepare legal documents unless a specifically authorized and verified service is added in the future.

Yes. PAPER & SIGN offers scheduled real-estate signing appointments and document-package handling. Signing support does not include legal, title, lending, or financial advice.
