Have you ever walked into a bank expecting a quick notarization, only to be told, “we can’t notarize that”? You’re not alone. Every day, people in Clearwater and Hillsborough County leave banks and libraries frustrated because their will, trust, or power of attorney (POA) isn’t accepted.
The first thing they do next? They pull out their phones and search for options:
“Notary near me for wills and trusts”
“Where to notarize a power of attorney in Clearwater”
“Notary that provides witnesses near me”
“Mobile notary that comes to my house”
If that sounds like you, you’ve found the solution. At Clearwater Mobile Notary LLC, we make notarizing your most important documents simple, fast, and stress-free.

Why Banks Refuse to Notarize Wills, Trusts, and POAs
Many people are surprised when their bank turns them away. Common reasons include:
Policy restrictions – most banks won’t notarize estate planning documents.
Liability concerns – staff may not want the responsibility.
Account-holder limits – some banks only notarize for customers.
Witness requirements – banks don’t provide witnesses, which Florida law requires for wills and trusts.
That’s why the majority of people start searching online for alternatives the minute they leave the bank.
Where You Can Get a Will, Trust, or POA Notarized
If your bank says no, here are your options:
UPS Stores & Retail Notaries – Many locations notarize documents, but not always wills or POAs. Call ahead.
Libraries & Courthouses – Free services at times, but almost never for estate documents.
Law Firms & Real Estate Offices – They may help, but often require you to be a client.
Online Notary (RON) – Florida allows remote notarization, legal 24/7, but not everyone is comfortable doing wills and trusts online.
Mobile Notary (Best Choice) – A licensed notary travels to your home, office, hospital, or assisted living facility. Mobile notaries can also bring two witnesses, making them the most convenient and reliable option for estate planning documents.
Why Clearwater Mobile Notary is the 1 Choice
At Clearwater Mobile Notary, we specialize in exactly what banks refuse:
✅ Wills & Trusts – notarized legally with witnesses included
✅ Powers of Attorney (POA) – handled with Florida’s strict requirements in mind
✅ Witness Services – we bring the witnesses you need
✅ Mobile Convenience – we travel anywhere in Pinellas or Hillsborough County
✅ Flexible Hours – evenings and weekends available
✅ Compassionate Service – professional, caring, and discreet
Just recently, a client contacted us after leaving his bank empty-handed. He needed both a will and trust notarized. Within hours, we came to his home, provided two witnesses, and completed everything legally and efficiently. That peace of mind is priceless.

What You Need for a Successful Notarization
To keep your appointment smooth and stress-free, be sure to have:
A valid photo ID (driver’s license, passport, or state ID)
The unsigned document (never sign beforehand)
Any required witnesses (or let us bring them for you)
