Please bring the document to be notarized, a valid photo ID, and any other parties who need to sign the document. If your document requires witnesses, please bring them along or let us know in advance so we can make arrangements.

An Ohio vehicle title is a legal document issued by the Ohio Bureau of Motor Vehicles (BMV) that proves ownership of a car, truck, or other vehicle. It’s required for transferring ownership, registering the vehicle, or selling it. The title includes important details like the owner’s name, vehicle identification number (VIN), make, model, and mileage.

To transfer a vehicle title in a private sale, the seller must complete the Assignment of Ownership section accurately, including the buyer’s name, address, sales price, and odometer reading.

⚠️ Important:

• Do not sign or fill out the title until you’re in front of a notary public.
• Any errors or alterations can void the title, requiring a duplicate.
• In Ohio, “open titles” (where the seller signs without filling in the buyer) are not allowed.

The notary will verify identities, witness signatures, and administer the required oath or affirmation.

If the seller cannot be present, they must give the buyer a notarized Power of Attorney form, available from the local BMV or website.

A last will and testament is a vital document that dictates how a person's estate and affairs will be handled following his or her death. It's never wise to use generic, store-bought forms to compose last wills and testaments, especially given that most attorneys will prepare simple forms at a reasonable price.

In Ohio, the assets of a person who dies without a last will and testament will be managed in a Probate Court. There is no guarantee that the court will adhere to the deceased's unofficial wishes. Everyone should have a last will and testament. It doesn't have to be notarized, but many signees request the help of a notary for verifying the two requisite witness signatures.

Everyone over the age of 18 should have both a living will and an official assignment of health care power of attorney. Combined, these documents convey the signee's wishes regarding health care and designate another adult to make decisions on their behalf should the person become incapacitated.

It's best to have both living wills and health care power of attorney drawn up before the adult signee needs them. Ohio residents should not wait until they are already gravely ill or in the hospital. If the mobile notary is unable to determine whether the signee fully understands the document, he or she cannot notarize it.

Just like health care power of attorney assigns responsibility for making care decisions on an incapacitated person's behalf, a general, durable, and financial power of attorney permits a person of the signee's choice to handle personal and financial affairs. Depending on the provisions provided in the document, that could include bank accounts, mortgages, securities, or other financial matters.

A power of attorney is an important legal instrument that requires careful execution and consideration. There are generic power of attorney forms available online and from some local stores. Keep in mind that they will not ensure compliance with state or local requirements.

The best way to obtain a power of attorney document for notarization is to check with the relevant financial institutions. Some banks and lenders only accept specific formats, while others have their own power of attorney forms. Individuals with high net worth typically have custom power of attorney forms drawn up by lawyers to ensure that everything is in order.

As with a health care power of attorney, it's best to assign a financial or general power of attorney before it becomes necessary. If the notary public cannot guarantee the consent of the signee, he or she will not be able to notarize the completed document.
