If you have heard of Notarios offering immigration services and you’re wondering why you should hire an Attorney instead of a Notario (or Notary) for your US immigration case, you need to be aware that these are distinct professions and, in the US, a Notario/Notary is not a replacement for an Attorney.
In Latin American countries, Notarios Publicos are highly trained legal professionals similar to attorneys. They provide legal advice to their customers and draft legal documents on their behalf. In most Latin countries, a Notario is a person who studied in college to obtain a law degree and acquired a legal right to provide legal help to others.
In the United States, however, Notary Publics are state-commissioned officials and whose sole purpose is to verify a person’s identity when signing documents. Almost anyone can be a Notary Public. Notary Public licensure does not require any education and it does grant the right to assist people with immigration cases.
Unfortunately, Notario Fraud is common in the US. Many Notarios take advantage of the confusion the Notario job title creates and advertise their services to immigrants in the US. If you hire a Notario for your US immigration case, you will be held responsible for any mistakes the Notario makes. This could result in denial of your immigrant application, and even deportation from the United States.
