I'm a notary in DC and was one in New York. The law firms I worked for in New York insisted that all legal assistants become notaries. When I moved to DC it wasn't as emphasized in law firms, but when I started working at IFC, they wanted me to become one, so I did. They paid for my bond and equipment and in return I notarize whatever documents I'm asked to, whether for the Corporation or for staff. I'm thinking of becoming a notary in Maryland, the state I live in, but I'll see.
