Texas Notary Public. Mobile notary services available at your home, office, or a convenient location.
Notary services, wherever you are.
As a commissioned Texas Notary Public, I offer professional, unhurried notarizations at my office or as a mobile notary at your home, office, or another convenient location across Greater Houston.
- Mobile appointments at your home, office, or a convenient public location
- Office appointments at 1201 Fannin Street, Suite 350, Houston
- Acknowledgments, oaths and affirmations, jurats, and other notarial acts allowed under Texas law
I am not an attorney licensed to practice law in Texas and may not give legal advice or accept fees for legal advice.
Before Your Appointment
How to prepare.
Valid photo ID
A current government-issued photo ID for every signer, such as a driver’s license, state ID, passport, or military ID.
Every signer, in person
Each person whose signature is being notarized must be present at the appointment.
A complete document
Fill in every blank before we meet. I can’t notarize a document with blank spaces.
Wait to sign
Unless your document’s instructions say otherwise, wait to sign until we’re together.
Know the notarization type
Your document or the person who sent it should tell you which notarization you need. I can’t choose it for you.
My notary record
I record each notarization in my notary record book, as Texas law requires.

What a notary can’t do
A notary verifies identity and witnesses signatures. To protect you, Texas law limits what I can do as a notary. I can’t:
- Give legal advice or explain what a document means
- Prepare, draft, or fill out legal documents for you
- Choose the type of notarization for you
- Notarize for someone who isn’t present
- Certify copies of birth, death, or marriage certificates or other public records; request certified copies from the office that issued them
