With RON, you can skip the hassle of visiting a physical location and avoid unexpected charges. Instead, enjoy a streamlined, private, and professional experience that prioritizes your privacy and delivers quality at a fair price. Here’s a quick guide on how it works:

Once scheduled, you’ll receive a confirmation email with a link to access your session at the designated time.

Step 3: Meet with the Notary Online

At the scheduled time, join the online video meeting with the notary. You’ll review and sign the document electronically. The notary will witness your signature in real time. A PC, Mac, or Chromebook with a webcam is required. If you are unfamilar with digital documents it is recommended you have a friend or relative help as we are unable to provide technical support.
