I don't know where you are and that can make a big difference in the answer. In the US, a notary is only witnessing the person signing a document and has no authority concerning the validity of the content of the document. In the US, it would be considered a legal division only if both parties of the dissolution sign it.

I am not a lawyer, but generally, a document prepared and notarized by the parties involved may be considered legal. However, the enforceability of such a document in court can vary depending on the jurisdiction and the specific circumstances of the case. It is advisable to consult with a qualified attorney to ensure the document meets all legal requirements and to determine its enforceability.

However, whether it is enforceable depends on the document and what you need it to prove. If two people have a dispute regarding who owns real estate and one has an un-notarized deed and the other has a notarized deed, the one with the fully executed deed will likely win. If a Will was not notarized and state laws require a that a will be notarized, the Will, even if written by the decedent, may be vulnerable to challenges because of the missing notary. If it was notarized and has no technical errors it would be allowed automatically. As in every profession, there are unscrupulous notaries who notarize documents that are obviously forged or fraudulent. Although 'notarized' the court has the power to reject them. That's what courts are for. A notary's acknowledgement does not automatically give credence to just any document.
