pursuant to CA Notary Handbook:

"Acts Constituting the Practice of Law
California notaries public are prohibited from performing any duties that may be construed
as the practice of law. Among the acts which constitute the practice of law are the preparation,
drafting, or selection or determination of the kind of any legal document, or giving advice in
relation to any legal documents or matters. If asked to perform such tasks, a California notary
public should decline and refer the requester to an attorney."

Note <selection or determination of the kind of any legal document .... > I get what you're saying and I agree - to a certain point. CA notaries are not allowed to chose which notarial act/verbiage is to be used. It's up to the hiring party/receiver to make that determination. <sigh>
