See my other post in this thread. RE Agents cannot notarize documents associated with the transaction. Exception: Attorneys ...
"An attorney is exempt from this provision of the law and is permitted to notarize his client’s signature on a document that he has prepared, if he is serving as the attorney-of-record and is only receiving a fee for his legal services or his notary services. However, if the attorney were also a party to the transaction, or had an interest, such as being named the executor or administrator of an estate, he should not notarize his client’s signature on such documents." |
