Depending upon the law of the state in which the Notary has their 'powers' they MAY be able to ATTEST to the validity of the copy of a Last Will and Testament, PROVIDED that they have the original with which to compare it against. If the original will and the will copy run to more than one page, I believe they would have to affix their seal and signature on each page of the copy to ensure that altered copy pages were not inserted or added "after the fact."

DOES a notarized document become a binding contract?

The notary seal and notary's signature does not make a document a binding contract. The signatures on a contract can be notarized. However, when a document if notarized, the notary is simply stating that to the best of their knowledge the signature is that of the person signing the document. In other words, the notary verifies a signature that they witness. A contract would be binding once the participants sign it in front of the notary and the document is notarized.
