- Do you travel to Queen Creek for estate planning documents?

- Can you provide the witnesses?
- The notary cannot be one of the witnesses on documents where the witnesses' signatures are the thing being notarized. Bring two adults who are not named in the documents and do not stand to inherit; friends and neighbours are the usual answer.
- Can you tell me whether I need a will or a trust?
- No — that is legal advice, and a notary who gives it is committing the unauthorized practice of law. That question belongs to an estate planning attorney.
