A notary guards against coercion in contracts and other legal agreements. The court wants to know that the sales agreement you are filing, for example, represents an agreement between two parties who willingly accept the terms included.

Guarding against coercion is an important function of a notary. Many contracts and agreements become legally binding documents. A health proxy, living will or power of attorney are all documents that can have a significant impact on the lives of those involved. Notaries can testify that no one was bullied into signing over control of their life or fortune.

Frequently notarized documents pertaining to property include Grant Deed, Quitclaim Deed and Rental Agreement. Notaries are also called on for the execution of documents like Sworn Statement, Plea Form and other papers related to court proceedings.
