If you (or a family member) are hospitalized, you may need a notary public to notarize powers of attorney or last wills and testaments. It can be difficult finding a notary while hospitalized, but Maxima Mobile Notaries is here to help!
At Maxima, we understand that the last thing people want to think about during hospitalization is getting important legal documents notarized. We frequently meet clients in their hospital rooms to notarize important documents. Hospitalization can be stressful, and our goal is always to provide professional and empathic services on these visits.
We do not charge additional fees for time spent in health care facilities. We only charge for travel and the notarization itself, both of which can be found on our fees page.
Our notaries also understand the important role of privacy when notarizing documents in a hospital. We are trained to uphold the highest degree of ethical standards, and respect your privacy at all times.
If you are in need of documents, notaries are not able to provide them for you. That is considered unlicensed practice of law. Thankfully, there are a variety of documents available online for low (or no!) fee. You can read more about those resources on our blog.
Patients in hospitals may also be eligible for free legal assistance, depending on the facility. Check the links below to learn more.
If you need information about medical powers of attorney or other documents, we strongly recommend you speak to an attorney. Michigan residents can also check out the Michigan Legal Help website. They have specific information about Powers of Attorney here: https://michiganlegalhelp.org/resources/wills-and-life-planning/making-health-care-power-of-attorney
