A small mistake can be very expensive. Notarial losses are becoming more common every day, from small suits to major verdicts involving tens of thousands of dollars. The required Florida notary bond DOES NOT cover you in these cases. Just as you protect your home, car and other personal effects with insurance, you need to protect your notarial acts with Florida Notary Public Errors and Omissions Insurance. The term of the policy is the same as your notary commission. Policies may be purchased at a nominal premium with varying limits. Get the protection you need so you can perform your notarial duties with confidence!
