On-site document generation: I travel with a laptop and portable printer to every hospital appointment.
If you need legal forms such as powers of attorney or healthcare directives, you can use my equipment and online
legal form access to generate and print documents on the spot so they are ready to sign and notarize immediately.
Important: I am a commissioned notary public, not an attorney. I do not provide legal advice, recommend specific documents, or explain your legal rights. Any help I provide with online legal form services is strictly administrative - using my laptop, printer, internet connection, and platform access to help you generate, print, and organize the forms you choose so they are ready to sign and notarize. For legal questions or to decide which documents are appropriate for your situation, please consult a licensed attorney.
Real Estate & Loans
Real Estate & Loan Signings
Real estate packages are more complex and time-intensive than a standard notarization, so they have their own flat rates.

| Single deed signing | $100 |
| Seller package or loan modification | $150 |
| Refinance package | $200 |
| Purchase package | $250 |

Travel beyond the standard service area or late-night appointments may add an additional fee (typically +$50), which we will confirm before you book.
Trusts & Estate Planning
Trusts, Wills & Estate Planning
Estate planning signings often involve multiple signers and documents, so pricing is based on the total number of signatures notarized.
| Signatures in package | Flat fee |
|---|---|
| 1-5 notarized signatures | $150 |
| 6-10 notarized signatures | $200 |
| 11+ notarized signatures | $250 |
Pricing assumes one coordinated visit at a single location. Complex schedules or multiple locations can be quoted individually.
Jail & Detention

Juvenile Detention
Juvenile Detention Center Notarizations
Juvenile facility visits require attorney coordination (court order or attorney-sponsored visit) and strict adherence to Welfare & Institutions Code § 827 confidentiality. Because of the extra lead time and professional-visitor procedures, juvenile visits are priced above adult jail work.
| Facility region | Flat fee | Includes |
|---|---|---|
| Los Angeles County juvenile facilities Los Padrinos, Barry J. Nidorf, Campus Kilpatrick, Dorothy Kirby |
$300 | Attorney coordination, court-order or attorney-sponsored entry, WIC 827-compliant visit, notarization of documents you or your attorney provide. |

$325 | Same scope as LA, applied to OC Juvenile Hall with additional travel time. |
| San Bernardino & Riverside County juvenile facilities Central Valley JDAC (SB), Riverside Juvenile Hall (Riverside) |
$350 | Same scope as LA, applied to Inland Empire facilities with extended travel. |
Juvenile facility access requires at least 1–2 business days of lead time for attorney coordination. Same-day service is not typically possible for juvenile visits — call as early as possible. Pricing assumes one visit at one facility for one youth; multi-facility or repeat-visit work is quoted separately.
Apostille & Legalization
Apostille & Legalization Services

|---|---|
| 1 personal document | $175 each |

California in-person filing may add a $6 special-handling fee for each different public official's signature authenticated. Federal expedite, consular, shipping, courier, notarization, and other rush charges remain additional when applicable. We'll provide a written total before you decide to proceed.
Turnaround & expedite options
Standard turnaround for most apostille work is about 5 business days, depending on document type and issuing office. Faster options are available when the situation allows:
| Service speed | Additional rush fee |
|---|---|
| 2-3 business days | +$50 |
| 1 business day | +$100 |
| Under 24 hours (when available) | +$150 |

| Federal service speed | Additional expedite fee |
|---|---|
| Standard federal processing, 4–8 weeks | No expedite fee |
| Expedited federal processing, 7–10 business days | +$100–$150 |
