Only as a witness
No. A notary is just a witness to someone singing a document. The document could pertain to custody or power-of-attorney issues, but not necessarily. The notarized paper could mean anything . . . you'll just have to read it to find out.
Any one can serve as a witness to a will. The fact that they are an attorney makes no difference.
It means that you pay all the costs associated with litigation such as filing fees, postage copies, faxes, expert witness fees, deposition costs, etc.
If the daughter's ex husband is suing her for full custody and his attorney has subpoenaed her mother as a witness in the case, she has to tell the truth to any and all questions asked, regardless of whether it's her attorney or the child's father's attorney asking the questions. So if any of the answers are answers 'against' the daughter, then the answer would be yes, the mother does have to testify.
It is not required that you have a lawyer for a deposition. There is probably going to be attorneys for both sides present. If there is any question about your part in the subject being discussed, you may want to consult an attorney to insure you aren't putting yourself in trouble. Normally there shouldn't be a problem, particularly if you are just a witness.
Usually the questions are not too greatly different. Deposition questions are usually asked by the attorney's in order to learn facts and gain information in order to prepare their cases for court. Many times, however, they will try to use the answers given in deposition to impeach the witness on the stand, if the answer they give at trial is different from the answer they gave at depostion.
The attorney who calls the witness conducts a direct examination. The opposing attorney may then conduct a cross examination. The first attorney may then conduct a redirect exam, whereupon the opposing attorney may conduct a recross exam.
Direct examination is when the witness is FIRST questioned in court by an attorney (usually their own lawyer), when he is questioned by the opposing side it is called "cross-examination."
The attorney asked several questions of the witnes.

NOT a prosecution witness! BUT - if you are a defense witness you should consult with the defendants defense attorney before you do so.
