I have been a notary for over 25 years in Massachusetts and have never charged a fee. We have a client who was charged over $8 per document by the UPS store for "review of documents". My understanding of the notary law is that I must merely ask the affiant if they are signing this document voluntarily and of their own free act and deed. I have no right or reason to review a document and in fact, it is really none of my business what is in it. I am not a lawyer. Anyone else feel the same? Different point of view? I'm curious. Thanks

Corollarily (hệ quả), Attorney Baldovino violated the 2004 Rules on Notarial Practice, which provides that a notary public (công chứng viên) should not notarize a document unless the signatory to the document is in the notary's presence personally at the time of the notarization, and personally known to the notary public or otherwise identified through competent evidence of identity. The purpose of these requirements is to enable the notary public to verify the genuineness of the signature and to ascertain that the document is the signatory's free act and deed. If the signatory is not acting of his or her own free will, a notary public is mandated to refuse to perform a notarial act.
