Apostille Requirements
Apostilles authenticate the seals and signatures of officials on public documents such as birth certificates, court orders, or any other document issued by a federal agency or certified by an American or foreign consul. An apostille certifies the document(s), so the document can be recognized in foreign countries that are members of the 1961 Hague Convention Treaty. We only issue apostilles for federal documents to use in countries that are members of the 1961 Hague Convention. (from https://travel.state.gov/)

What is an ‘apostille’?
An apostille is a certificate issued by a government agency verifying the authenticity of the signature of a Notary Public or other public official. In other words, an apostille confirms that the seal and signature of the Notary on a document is valid, and the notarization can be accepted by the receiving agency in the foreign country.
In the modern world, countless documents are signed and sent between countries, many of them notarized or including the signature of some other public official. The challenge for individuals receiving the documents is knowing whether the Notary’s signature is legitimate.

Member Of Contra Costa County Bar Association
John Kopilow holds a paralegal certificate and has owned Legal Document Professionals & Notary Service since 2011. His journey to becoming a committed Legal Document Assistant began with his experiences as an executor and a small claims lawsuit.
John served as executor of his parent’s estate which was done incompetently and caused him much stress and grief. Following that experience, while a small business owner, he had to take a client to small claims court for non-payment of fees. After winning his case he faced the difficulty of collecting the judgment. This led him to enlist the help of a Judgment Recovery professional and he eventually took a course in this area and opened up his own business where he successfully satisfied judgments for creditors.
During the economic crisis, the Judgment Recovery business became increasingly difficult. This is when John decided to apply his past experiences as an executor and small legal business owner and created Legal Document Professionals & Notary Service.
