A notarized Settlement Release is a practical risk control. With an acknowledgment, the notary certifies that the signer’s identity was verified and that the release was executed willingly. This makes later claims of forgery or duress far less credible and protects both sides from post-settlement disputes. Many firms also request neutral witnesses when the release contains high-value consideration or a confidentiality provision.

We support law firms across business hubs like Town Square Las Vegas, North Las Vegas, Meadows Village, and Tivoli Village. For capacity or remote matters, pair the release with a Power of Attorney and request Notary with Witnesses Provided when needed.

Yes, this happens frequently. Banks refuse to notarize documents they prepared because notaries must act as impartial third parties witnessing signatures without endorsing document content. If a bank notary is employed by the institution that drafted the document, impartiality is questioned, creating legal liability exposure.

Conflict of Interest & Liability Concerns:

Complex documents like powers of attorney, trusts, or healthcare directives require specific formalities. Bank policies often prohibit notarization of unfamiliar or sensitive documents, especially those involving estate planning. The concern is that any error could expose the bank to liability claims. By refusing, banks protect themselves—but leave you without a service you may urgently need.

✍️ When Banks Say No to Their Own Documents:

• Financial power of attorney prepared by the bank's legal department
• Trust documents the bank reviewed but didn't draft
• Complex healthcare directives requiring witness verification
• Documents involving third-party beneficiaries or contested terms

⚖️ Your Options:

Seek a licensed mobile notary experienced with estate planning. Professional notaries in Rancho Bel Air and Summerlin provide specialized notarization with proper legal oversight and immediate availability, bypassing bank delays and refusals.
