About

A South Carolina notary public has the authority to:

Take Acknowledgments

Witness signatures

I am not an attorney, and therefore, by law, I cannot explain or interpret, the contents of any documents for you, instruct you on how to complete a document or direct you on the advisability of signing a particular document. By doing so I would be engaging in the unauthorized practice of law and could face legal penalties that include the possibility of incarceration. Any important questions about your document should be addressed by the lender, title company, or attorney.
