    What a great lecture! I love the fact that very important issues are covered in such details, not like other videos on UA-cam trying to get a million watch by saying absolutely nothing. Thank you very much! Please, do more educational videos for us, so we can serve people great and avoid trouble.

    I just had a notary public refuse to acknowledge a release form for my parents. The release is in regards to an estate dispute. They said there were missing pages. Those pages are the signature pages for her other 5 siblings. They are in her siblings possession along with the body of the release so they can get their signatures acknowledged. The lawyer will compile all the signatures together into one document to send to the executor of the estate. The notary public, at the local bank, also asked to see a copy of the will. This is completely inappropriate and also is in the possession of the estate attorney. The release of claims ends a dispute between family members and the executor of the will. It has nothing to do with the will directly. Does the notary public requesting the will and digging into a private family estate settlement issue constitute the practice of law? What would they do with the will? Interpret it and give us their judgement and advise? Is this not illegal in the State of New York? The bank manager got involved and also brought in the bank lawyer. They all said we had to produce for them a will, unrelated to our legal release document, and also that they required the other pages which are simply blank pages for the signature and notarization of other siblings. Without these they refused to notarize the document. Is this misconduct? It seems like it.

    If the accompanied principal only speaks Spanish and you suspect the person accompanying them is shady...and you need to ask them to leave the room ...can you use another person as translator .. and can it be over the phone ...like a language line? Or someone known to you either in person or telephonically?

      In Texas, you should not have an interpreter. If you are not bilingual, should should not assist someone that speaks a foreign language. The interpreter may not deliver the right message and there’s no way for you to detect, so just don’t do it. Hope this answer helps.

      This lecture was for Texas. In Texas, thumb print is not required. However, you can have one for other reasons my not required for notarization in Texas. Please check your state laws and regulations regarding this. Hope this helps.

      @@goodvibes04281 Okay, I’ll check again, but before I only saw the print version. I need an ebook, preferably Kindle, so I can enlarge the text. Thanks!
