Witnessing Requirements
In Ontario, a POA requires two witnesses. The notary acts as one witness. If you cannot provide a second independent witness (someone who is not family and not named in the POA), please inform us so we can make arrangements.
A Power of Attorney (POA) grants someone you trust the authority to make critical financial or healthcare decisions on your behalf. In Richmond Hill, banks, hospitals, and real estate lawyers require POAs to be flawlessly executed. Our experienced notaries ensure your documents meet all legal standards in Ontario.
We understand that mobility can be an issue for seniors or those recovering in a healthcare facility. Our notaries provide compassionate, on-site Notary Service at Mackenzie Richmond Hill Hospital, local long-term care homes, or your private residence.

The notary must verify that the person granting the power (the grantor) understands the document and is signing voluntarily, without coercion.
Never give away your original POA. We can create multiple notarized "certified true copies" of your signed POA for you to distribute to banks and family members.
