Why Notarization Matters for Estate Documents
Estate planning documents carry significant legal weight. Proper notarization ensures they are enforceable, reduces the chance of legal disputes, and provides clarity for your loved ones. In North Carolina, many estate documents must be notarized in the presence of an authorized notary to be legally valid.
Common Estate Documents We Notarize Include:
Last Will and Testament
Although North Carolina does not require a will to be notarized to be valid, having it notarized along with a self-proving affidavit simplifies probate proceedings. We ensure the affidavit is properly executed and notarized at the time the will is signed.
Durable Power of Attorney
This document allows someone else to make financial or legal decisions on your behalf. We meet with principals and agents to witness and notarize signatures in accordance with state laws.
Healthcare Power of Attorney
Used to appoint someone to make medical decisions if you're unable, this form must be signed and notarized properly to be legally binding in healthcare facilities.
Living Wills and Advance Directives
These documents express your medical care preferences in critical situations. We help ensure they’re correctly signed and notarized, often in collaboration with healthcare providers.
