Some documents or proceedings require a person to formally swear or affirm that the information they provide is truthful. I administer oaths and affirmations as part of the notarial process when this formal declaration is required. During the appointment, the signer makes the appropriate verbal declaration before me, confirming the truthfulness of the statement or information involved.

An affirmation serves a similar purpose to an oath while allowing the individual to make the declaration without a religious reference. The process is handled respectfully and clearly, with attention to the procedural requirements of the requested notarial act. By administering the oath or affirmation in an organized setting, I help clients satisfy this formal requirement while keeping the interaction straightforward, professional, and focused on the declaration being made.
