What Is an Authorization Form Notary Service in Los Angeles
An authorization form is a legal document that allows one person to give another the authority to act on their behalf. When notarized, this form becomes legally recognized by banks, schools, medical providers, government offices, and other institutions. The notary’s role is to verify the identity of the signer and confirm their intent, making the document valid and trustworthy.
