When someone is hospitalized or in long-term care, legal paperwork often can't wait. We travel directly to the bedside to notarize the documents families need most — quickly, respectfully, and professionally.
Serving Charlotte, Mint Hill, Monroe, and surrounding Mecklenburg & Union County communities.
These are the most requested documents when patients and families need a bedside notary. If your document isn't listed, call us — we handle most standard notarization requests.
North Carolina notary law requires the signer to be identified before any notarization. Here's what you need to have ready before we arrive.
| Requirement | Details | Must Have? |
|---|---|---|
| Valid Government-Issued Photo ID | Driver's license, state ID card, or passport. Must not be expired. | Yes — Required |
| Mental Awareness (Competency) | The signer must understand what they are signing and be acting voluntarily. The notary evaluates this at the time of signing. | Yes — Required |
| Willing Signature | The signer cannot be coerced or pressured. They must sign of their own free will. | Yes — Required |
| Witnesses | Required for Wills and some healthcare directives. Family members or facility staff may serve as witnesses depending on the document type. | Depends on Document |
| Attorney Preparation | Integrity Closings CLT does not draft documents. Complex documents such as wills and trusts should be prepared by an attorney before our visit. | Recommended |
| Credible Witness | If a patient cannot present ID due to hospitalization, a credible witness who personally knows the signer may sometimes be used under NC notary law. | Alternative Option |
Call us before scheduling. In some situations, a credible witness — someone who personally knows the patient and can swear to their identity — may satisfy the identification requirement under North Carolina notary law. We'll walk you through what's possible and what we'll need when we arrive.
For time-sensitive situations, calling is always the fastest path. For scheduled visits, use the form and we'll respond promptly.
