Why Preparation Matters More Than Speed in Notary Work 🖋️

Never rush in a notarial transaction.

Many people assume a good notary is a fast notary. In reality, a good notary is a careful notary.

Rushing increases the risk of:

• ID errors

• incomplete certificates

• incorrect dates

• missed signatures

• rejected documents

Preparation matters more than speed.

Prepared notaries:

• review documents before stamping

• verify identification thoroughly

• double-check certificate wording

• confirm signer awareness

• ensure every required field is complete

Efficiency is helpful — but accuracy is essential.

Professional notary work is measured by correctness, not quickness.

In notarization, careful is faster than fixing mistakes later.
