You've heard the expression "signed, sealed and delivered"? These three things make the deed effective: signing it, sealing it, and delivering it to the other party.
Shakespeare did not write his names in a book, or at least not in any book that has survived the centuries. The only examples of his signature (or indeed his handwriting) come from legal documents: his will, a deed, and a mortgage.

A Notary's powers are granted by the State in which they reside but a Notary's duties are essentially the same in all states. As long as a Notary certifies a signature as valid it is acceptble in all jurisdictions
A notary has to follow the rules required for their jurisdiction. In almost all of them, you have to verify the identity of the person signing in front of you. Then you can legally notarize their signature.
Although a bit jumbled, those are some of the words used when a person signs a document and the signature is acknowledged by an authorized officer such as a notary. It certifies the signature as being made under the free will of the signer and that it is genuine.
The quit claim deed could be thrown out by a probate court, the proper heirs could sue the notary, and the notary could be held personally liable for any damages caused, as well as losing their commission. Not to mention, it is a criminal offense for a notary to notarize their spouse's, parents', or child's signature.
If by "notarized" you mean taking an acknowledgment such as on a deed or mortgage or administering an oath such as on an affidavit, you cannot get it done for another person because the notary is required to personally witness the signing. If by "notarized" you mean simply attesting to the validity of a signature, you can get it done for another person, because that type of notarial act may be done based on the notary's personal knowledge or other satisfactory proof of the person's signature. For example if a notary is attesting to a signature and personally knows the person's signature, the notary may attest to the signature but may not complete an acknowledgment that the person signed it in his/her presence.
Notarized Signatures are merely a signature that has been signed in front of a Notary Public. The Notary then signs beneath and stamps the document with a Notary Seal, which informs everyone the signature has been 'validated' as being the actual signature of the individual(s) who are signing the document. They appear something like this: Before me, a notary public in and for the said County and State, personally appeared the above named (Signer's Name) who acknowledged that he/she did sign the foregoing instrument and that the same is his/her free and voluntary act and deed. IN TESTIMONY WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand and official seal this _____ day of ________, 200____. ___________________________________ Notary Public My commission expires _______________________ {NOTARY SEAL} If you need your signature notarized keep in mind that most Notary Public usually charge a small fee for notarizing documents. Most banking institutions will also have a Notary that can notarize signatures on documents. Some banks will offer this service to it's customers for free. You shouldn't have to spend more than a few bucks to get something notarized.
No. An original signature page must be sent to the person who must sign. They must sign it before a notary and return the original for recording purposes. Law offices generally use an overnight service such as Fedex to hasten such transactions.
No! They must actually physically observe the signature being affixed to the document and see identification that the signer is who they say they are. Original ID MUST be presented, no copies. Acceptable ID varies from state to state. If the signer is swearing form should state something like sworn to and subscribed before me--must be signed before notary. If it says acknowledged before me, it can be signed without notary present but signer must say that it was their signature given of free will. In all cases signer MUST appear before notary.
In most states, YES. Only cannot notarize their own signature In many states, such as Florida and South Carolina, notaries public may not notarize signatures of themselves, their parents and grandparents, their siblings, or anyone else when the documents are in the interest of the notary (for example, a deed, a title or will in which the notary would be the beneficiary).
You have mentioned two types of documents in your question: a contract and a deed of donation. Every jurisdictions has its own laws regarding the proper execution of legal documents. It is not generally necessary for the "attorney" to sign unless she is the donor. The usual requirements require the signatures of the donor, witnesses and the signature of a notary who acknowledges that the document was signed by the donor. You need to check the laws in your particular jurisdiction.
The deed should be drafted in the state where the land lies and then sent by registered mail or commercial currier to the grantor. The grantor must sign the deed in front of witnesses and a notary and return it the same way it was sent.If there are several grantors, the deed should be drafted on one page (or however many pages are required) and the signature/witness/notary pages should each be self-contained. That way, each grantor could keep a copy of the deed they signed for their records and just return the signature page. Once all the signature pages have been returned signed, witnessed (if necessary) and notarized, they can be attached to an original copy of the deed and the deed should be recorded immediately.This type of complex transaction should be handled by an attorney, or, by an extremely professional and organized agent who will handle it correctly, handle the distribution of the proceeds correctly and keep copies of all the checks and receipts for costs. The mail or currier fees will add up and there will be recording fees. Any fees should be deducted from the proceeds before they are distributed. A copy of the recorded deed should be sent upon request to any of the grantors.
