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.
San Bernardino County facilities require visits to be scheduled at least one day in advance. We confirm current procedures, attorney/professional visiting availability, and ensure the inmate is housed at WVDC and not temporarily transferred.
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 WVDC in Rancho Cucamonga, 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.
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: WVDC is one of the busiest jails in California with over 3,300 beds. Give us as much notice as possible, but we understand jail notarizations are often urgent and will do our best to accommodate same-day or next-day requests.
Jail notarizations at West Valley Detention Center require travel from Los Angeles to Rancho Cucamonga, coordination with facility staff, security screening, and wait time. Pricing reflects the distance and complexity of working within the facility's procedures.
