1. services provided

RH Mobile Notary provides mobile notary public services in accordance with California state law. Services may include, but are not limited to, acknowledgments, jurats, affidavits, and other notarial acts permitted by law.

RH Mobile Notary does not provide legal advice, prepare legal documents, or offer guidance on the content or legality of documents.

Failure to provide proper identification will result in cancellation of the appointment, and applicable fees may still apply.

3. notary fees

  • $15 per notarized signature (per notarial act)

These fees are regulated by law and are non-negotiable.

  • Distance traveled

  • Time of day

  • Urgency or same-day requests

  • Parking or toll costs

Travel fees are earned upon dispatch and are non-refundable.

  • The request violates California Notary law

6. cancellations & no-shows

  • Cancellations made with less than 1 hour notice may be subject to the full travel fee.

Notary act fees are only charged if the notarization is completed.

7. payment terms

Payment is due at the time of service unless otherwise agreed upon in advance.

Accepted payment methods may include:

  • Cash

  • Zelle
