Need a Witness for a Notarization, Loan Signing, or Just to Feel Safe?

Witnesses are an important part of preventing fraud and making sure documents are authentic. Instead of just a Notary Public confirming that a document was signed by an individual, a second disinterested party also watches over the signing and makes sure that there is no foul play. They give extra protection by adding another party to testify that the document was in fact signed by the party listed and done so under their own free will.

In Florida, witnesses are required for recorded documents such as:

• Mortgage
• Deed of Trust
• Grant Deed
• Warranty Deed
• Quit Claim Deed

Typically, the Notary Public acts as a witness for these documents so you will not need an additional witness.

In addition to to the recorded documents, sometimes additional witnesses are required for other reasons or they are just a good idea for signing things of high authority or scrutiny such as:

• Wills
• Trusts
• Power of Attorneys (POAs)​
