For Law Firms: Streamline affidavits, POAs, and client signings with compliant RON.
RON for legal practices

Remote Online Notary For Law Firms

Notaron lets your firm coordinate notarizations entirely online — no trip to an office or in‑person notary needed. We confirm each signer's identity, connect them with a licensed notary over secure video (this is Remote Online Notarization, or RON), and return a signed PDF that's sealed so any later change is easy to spot, together with a full recording and audit trail. Use your own notaries, schedule signings for clients or staff, or let clients book their own time — all from one dashboard.

Request notarizations for your clients.

Set up a notarization for a client and send it to them in a few clicks — they don't need to create an account or work anything out for themselves. Add the people and documents, pick how the client will join, and follow the request all the way to a finished, signed document.

Your team stays in charge of the matter and can see where it stands at every step, while the client just opens their invite, confirms their identity, and signs. Handle one client or your whole caseload from the same place.

Frequently asked questions

Common questions from firms evaluating remote online notarization.

Is remote online notarization legal for law firms?
Yes. RON is authorized in nearly every US state, each with its own requirements. Notaron applies state-specific prompts, recording, and retention rules automatically by jurisdiction.
What documents can a law firm notarize remotely with Notaron?
Affidavits, powers of attorney, estate and probate documents, corporate resolutions, litigation verifications, and more — across general, corporate, family, immigration, and bankruptcy practice.
What is an X.509 e-seal?
An X.509 digital certificate cryptographically signs the notarized PDF, making any later change to the document detectable — this is what makes the output tamper-evident.
Is RON valid in all 50 states?
RON is permitted in the large majority of states, and rules vary by jurisdiction. Notaron maintains a state-by-state reference and enforces the correct requirements per session.
How long does a RON session take?
Most sessions complete in about 12–18 minutes, including identity verification and signing.
