Why LM Notary

Local enough to know the drive. Careful enough to double-check the file.

“
I built this business around one idea: if you need something notarized, that's usually not a convenient moment in your day. My job is to make it a non-event — I come to you, I check the document twice, and I get out of your way.

— Luis A. Murillo, Founder

Questions we hear often

Signing FAQ

Straight answers for signers and the professionals sending them my way.

A valid, unexpired government-issued photo ID — typically a driver's license, state ID, or passport. If you're unsure whether your ID qualifies, ask when you schedule and I'll confirm.

No — for notarized documents, you'll sign in front of me. Signing beforehand can actually invalidate the notarization, so please wait until we're together.

In most cases, yes — let me know when you schedule so I can arrange it in advance.

Yes — documents are scanned on-site immediately after signing and returned same-day, with shipping or courier delivery available for the physical package.

I can confirm names, dates, and signature placement, but California notaries can't provide legal advice or explain the legal effect of a document. For questions about the content, your attorney or lender is the right resource.

The short version

Why I do this work.

I started LM Notary Services because I kept seeing the same thing: people needing a document signed at the exact moment it was least convenient to drive across town — a closing, a hospital bedside, a trust that couldn't wait another week.

Today I split my time between Santa Maria, where I'm based, and appointments across Santa Barbara and San Luis Obispo counties — including regular drives to Santa Barbara for real estate closings. Wherever the appointment is, the standard is the same: show up on time, check the document carefully, and treat the signing like it matters, because it does.

When I'm not on a signing, you'll usually find me at the shop working through the next day's schedule — or, more often than not, already on the road to the one after that.
