 Re: Can I notarize an old document that is resigned California
Posted by  Cheryl Elliott on 2/16/19 8:55am

After reading this entire thread (following a great night's sleep), I can see that it is a strong possibility the attorney is only wanting the client to reaffirm this power of attorney drawn years prior is still valid and there are no changes. The acute awareness of the client is key here.

Onus on you only is that client is signing with no coercion and is aware of what she is signing and willing to sign it, confirming this is her wish, that the prior POA is still valid. Obviously, there are circumstances we as notaries will never know.

Just notarizing/witnessing a signature, nothing more. Be sure you get a thumbprint. I've re-notarized plenty of DOTs that either disappeared or documents were challenged, as others have stated.
