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.
Riverside County facilities require visits to be scheduled at least one day in advance. For attorney or professional visits such as notarizations, we contact the facility directly at (951) 955-4500 to coordinate scheduling. We confirm the inmate is housed at RPDC and not temporarily transferred before making the trip.
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.
We travel from Los Angeles to RPDC in downtown Riverside, clear security screening, and meet with the inmate in the designated visiting area. The inmate confirms their identity, signs the documents in our presence, and we complete the notarization. Valid government-issued photo ID is required for all visitors.
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: RPDC is in downtown Riverside with metered street parking and public garages at Lemon and 12th Street. Allow extra time for parking and check-in, especially during weekday court hours when the facility is busiest.
