What if a non notary closed a loan without a notary present but notary witnessed customes but not actually signing what legal ramifications can occur?

The job of the notary is to verify that the person signing a document is who they say they are. Some documents require that the notary see the actual signing and some merely require the notary to verify ID. The legal ramifications of an improper or invalid notarization are that the document can be challenged more easily in court, may be completely invalid without a proper notarization, the notary could be sued/fined/charged for improperly notarizing a document, the transaction may be declared void, and other bad things.

What is attestor?

An attestor is simply a witness, someone who 'attests' to the truth of some matter. For instance, a notary public attests to the identity of a person signing a legal document by signing and affixing their seal to the document. Therefore, the notary is an attestor to the identity of whomever signed the document. This negates the need of all parties affected by the document to be present during the signing. The notary is not attesting to the truth or accuracy of the document itself, but only that the person signing the document provided sufficient evidence of their identity to them.

Does a witness to a signature on a legal document need to know what is in the document?

You are a witness to the signing of a signature on the document and nothing else, (unless it is stated that you are a witness to something else involved with the legal matter directly above where you will sign the document as the witness.)You do not have to know what the document says, what or who it is about, or anything else about the document in order to be a witness to the signing of the document.You are only a witness to the 'original signature' that was signed on the document and could be asked to verify the original signature, as well as your own signature, by anyone involved in the legal process.I would recommend you Do Not ever sign as a witness unless you are certain the signature is valid and it was signed in front of you.

Your Lanlord changed your typed lease in pen Is this legal?

If you both agreed to the change by initialing or signing next to it, the change is legal. You could also agree to the change by exchanging emails confirming the change, or signing some other document describing the change. This would make the change legal. However, if the landlord simply changed your lease without your written agreement, the changes are not valid or legally binding.


Is a trustee order legal if there are errors in the document?

Legal may not be the term you want. Presuming the order itself isn't for something illegal, and the topic is for something the trustee is authorized to handle, its fine. But if you mean is a document with typing and grammar errors enforceable - YES, absolutely. An error that is substantial to the degree of making it so it is not able to be understood may be a different issue. Virtually no legal docs, from Supreme Court findings to the laws themselves don't have errors.


Do you have to sign a document for it to be legal?

Yes. Signing a document proves that the signer has read and agrees to the terms on the document. A written document that has been signed by both parties as well as being witnessed by a neutral third party will be enforceable and binding on the parties.
