Power of attorney notary in Kansas City, MOSigned at the bedside.
We notarize financial and health care power of attorney papers at a home, hospital room or care facility.
Papers that can’t wait
Power of attorney, signed where the signer is
A power of attorney lets someone act for you. A health care directive records your medical wishes.
Both often need a notary.
These papers are often signed in a hurry and away from an office.
We come to the home, hospital room or care facility.
We’re open 24 hours, by appointment. Call or text to set a time, and ask about same-day visits.
What we notarize
Documents for people planning ahead
Bring the finished paperwork, unsigned. We handle the notary part and leave the legal part to you and your attorney.
Financial power of attorney
A notarized signature, with the signer present in person and photo ID checked.
Health care power of attorney
Papers naming someone to make medical choices, signed in front of the notary.
Health care directives
Written medical wishes, notarized when the form asks for it.
Bedside signings
We come to the hospital room or care facility when the signer can take part.
Home signings for families
A kitchen table works fine. Everyone signing needs to be in the room.
