Scheduling a Notary Appointment at the Indio Jail
1. Contact us with the inmate’s information
Call or text with the inmate’s full legal name, booking number (if known), and a description of the documents that need to be notarized. Let us know your deadline so we can prioritize scheduling.
2. We coordinate with the Benoit Detention Center
We confirm the current visiting procedures for professional notary visits, any advance scheduling requirements, and ensure the inmate is available and housed at the John J. Benoit Detention Center (not temporarily transferred for court or medical reasons).
3. Prepare your documents
Have all documents ready and complete before the appointment — we cannot draft legal documents, only notarize signatures. If the inmate needs to review documents first, coordinate with their attorney or use the facility’s mail system.
4. The notary appointment in Indio
We travel to the Indio jail, clear security screening, and meet with the inmate in the designated professional visiting area. The inmate confirms their identity, signs the documents in our presence, and we complete the notarization with the appropriate certificate.
5. Document delivery
After the appointment, we return the signed and notarized documents to you, your attorney, escrow company, or other designated recipient — by hand delivery, courier, or mail depending on your timeline.
Tip: Because Indio is in the Coachella Valley, travel time from Los Angeles is longer than local LA‑area jails. More notice helps, but we understand jail notarizations are often urgent and will do our best to accommodate time‑sensitive requests.
