And while this may\nbe a great thing to do now, during these times, it does pose insurance concerns\nand coverage issues. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Most errors and omissions policies which cover notary acts\ncontain an exclusion or exclusionary wording that prohibits a notary act\nwithout the signer of the documents physically appearing in front of the\nnotary. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Well, if you are notarizing a document online, obviously the\nsigner of the document is not physically in front of you. What do you do? <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I suggest that you call your insurance broker that sold you\nyour errors and omissions policy and have him or her confirm with the insurance\ncarrier, that the RON services will in fact be covered under your policy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We at Integrity First Corporation have called all the carriers that we deal with for the errors and omissions coverage and they all have answered positively with regards to the remote online notary services. They have confirmed that the policies will respond to the RON services provided that those services have been done in accordance with the state approved guidelines and regulations. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So again, you need to do the same. Call your broker and\nconfirm that coverage does exist for these types of services in your policy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Does your business include providing notary services for your clients?
