Question 1

What does a notary public actually do?

Accepted Answer

A Georgia notary public verifies the identity of signers, witnesses signatures, and administers oaths or affirmations. The notary confirms who signed a document — never what the document says or whether it is the right document for you.

Question 2

How are your fees structured?

Accepted Answer

New Heights notarial fee: $2 per notarial act. Travel, convenience, printing, copying, scanning and administrative charges are separate and disclosed before service. The notarial fee applies to each notarial act, not to the number of pages in a document.

Question 3

How much is a mobile notary appointment?

Accepted Answer

Travel/convenience fees are $35 for 0–10 miles, $45 for 11–20 miles, $60 for 21–30 miles, and a custom quote for 31+ miles. These are travel/convenience charges, not notarial fees, and applicable New Heights notarial fees are added.

Question 4

What should I bring to my appointment?

Accepted Answer

Bring your unsigned document (unless instructed otherwise), a valid government-issued photo ID for every signer, and any witnesses the document requires.

Question 5

Can you tell me which form I need or explain my document?

Accepted Answer

No. New Heights is not a law firm and does not provide legal, tax, accounting, financial or immigration advice, and does not select or draft legal documents. For those questions, please consult a licensed professional.

Question 6

Is the I-9 authorized representative service a notarization?

Accepted Answer

No. Completing Form I-9 as an authorized representative is an employer-designated administrative task, not a notarial act, and no notarial certificate or seal is applied.

Question 7

What areas do you serve?

Accepted Answer

Rome, Georgia and surrounding areas. Appointments beyond 30 miles are welcome with a custom travel quote.
