Divorce Isn’t Easy — But Getting Your Documents Notarized Can Be
“I just want this over with.”
When Emily placed her thick packet of divorce documents in front of me, her voice trembled—part fatigue, part relief. She mentioned hearing that the Marital Settlement Agreement and Parenting Plan needed notarization, but the idea of taking time off work and arranging childcare felt overwhelming.
That’s where Notary Near Me Florida steps in: offering ease and reassurance when you need it most.
Emily’s divorce journey had already been an emotional roller coaster—co‑parenting negotiations, financial disclosures, attorney meetings. The idea of juggling more appointments felt like too much. But thanks to our mobile service, I met her at her home in New Tampa at 7 PM. We reviewed her valid ID, walked through each document, and completed everything in under 30 minutes. She sighed with relief—and smiled as the notarial stamp hit the paper.
Divorce is hard. Notarization doesn’t have to be. At Notary Near Me Florida, we help you navigate the process with clarity.
Which divorce documents require notarization in Florida?
- Marital Settlement Agreements
- Financial Affidavits
- Parenting Plans
- Self-prepared Petitions or Answers
Not notarizing these properly can cause court delays or rejections.
What do you need to notarize your divorce paperwork?
- A valid, unexpired photo ID (driver’s license, passport, etc.)
- Documents unsigned—you sign in the notary’s presence
- Clear understanding of which forms require notarization—check with your attorney or court clerk
Do divorce documents need witnesses?
- No, divorce documents do not generally require witnesses for signatures or notary purposes—only the notary needs to be present to verify your identity.
- In some cases, such as a Corroborating Witness affidavit to prove residency, a separate witness may be required for the divorce filing itself. Always confirm with your attorney or local court
