Authenticity Notary Services

PSA: The number one complaint/comment I get when being called to do a notarization is "They don't have an ID." "How many seniors actually have ID anymore? They don't drive." "Oh it's fine, I can vouch for them."

The answer is easy! Every single person must have an ID to get a document notarized. There are a few ways around that but WA does not make it easy. It's sometimes, impossible to do it any other way.

If you have someone in your life that didn't renew their ID or thinks they just won't ever need it again, please do them a favor and help them get a current ID and keep it renewed.

February is a good time to take a deep breath now that the holidays are long behind us. Use this time to think about your future. Estate planning isn't just for seniors. If you have assets, investments, children etc. You should really think about your future and what that might look like.

The Estate Planning Must-Haves
Here is an estate planning checklist of items every estate plan should include:

Will/trust
Durable power of attorney
Beneficiary designations
Letter of intent
Healthcare power of attorney
Guardianship designations

We all know someone that didn't make plans for their estate and it ends up being a messy legal battle between family members. All these documents can easily be drawn up by an attorney. Some of the generic forms that will cover your basics can be found for free online on websites like eforms.com and many others you can find in a google search.

It's a beautiful day in the PNW. I didn't have a great night's sleep and started off with a negative attitude. I am now sitting in my happy place, enjoying my blooms, listening to birds, soaking up the sun. Telling myself it'll be a good day and to get out there and own it
