Florida requirements
A Florida durable power of attorney must be signed by the principal in front of two witnesses and a notary. The principal must understand what they are signing and sign willingly.
We are notaries, not attorneys. We cannot draft documents or give legal advice. Questions about what a document should say belong with your attorney.
What the signer needs
- A valid, unexpired government photo ID
- Awareness of what they are signing
- The completed document, unsigned
Hospital and nursing home signings
We coordinate with the family and visiting hours, and we're discreet and respectful at the bedside. If the signer is unconscious, confused or pressured, we cannot notarize, and we explain this kindly up front.
