Not long ago, I was contacted by a woman in OH, who was trying to have her husbands signature (who was in Iraq) notarized. One thing everyone must know about eNotarizations, at least in the state of Florida (& I would imagine most states) is the the same rules of notaries applies with eNotarizat

Here in Florida, but even more so in Southwest Florida, so many are complaining about both of these. Florida recently enacted the policy to roll back homeowners taxes to previous years rates. I'm not sure that was necessary, but the small relief is welcome by most. I must however, commend my c
