A Monroe County option
Remote notarization for Erie, Monroe, Temperance, Lambertville, Luna Pier, and nearby communities.
Lakebound gives Monroe County residents and businesses a nearby point of contact without pretending to be a mobile service or storefront. The appointment itself happens online, so an eligible signer can connect from home, work, a hospital room, or another private location with reliable internet.
Kayse remains physically located in Michigan during every Lakebound remote session. A signer may sometimes join from Toledo, another state, or another country when the document, applicable law, BlueNotary support, and receiving organization permit it.
Remote-only service: Lakebound does not offer walk-in, mobile, or in-person appointments. If a document requires wet ink, original paper handling, or physical presence, contact an in-person notary instead.
Searching for a “notary near me”?
A nearby online option when you do not need a walk-in notary.
A local search often shows banks, shipping stores, mobile notaries, and remote notaries together. Lakebound is the remote option: Kayse is based in Erie, but the appointment happens by secure live video. That can save travel when the document is eligible for electronic notarization and the receiving organization accepts it.
If your document requires wet ink, original paper handling, or an in-person witness, choose a walk-in or mobile notary instead. If it is remote-ready, you can request Lakebound from Erie, Monroe, Temperance, Lambertville, Luna Pier, La Salle, or elsewhere in Michigan.
How it works
A careful online process from request to completed document.
-
01
Confirm the request
Check with the document recipient that it accepts remote online notarization and an electronic document. Your document or recipient must identify the notarial act required.
-
02
Request a time
Use Lakebound's short intake form. Do not upload identification or private documents to the form.
-
03
Use the secure platform
After Kayse confirms eligibility and availability, BlueNotary handles document upload, identity verification, checkout, and the live audio-video session.
-
04
Meet, sign, and receive
Join by camera and microphone, sign as directed in real time, and receive the completed electronic document through the platform.
Michigan permits remote notarizations only through a state-approved vendor system. BlueNotary appears on the Michigan Department of State's current approved-vendor list.
Common requests
Documents that may be suitable for an online appointment.
Affidavits
Sworn or affirmed statements when the document includes, or the recipient provides, the required jurat wording.
Powers of attorney
When the document is complete and the drafting attorney or receiving organization approves the execution method.
Business records
Agreements, authorizations, and other records that call for an acknowledgment, jurat, or witnessed signature.
Personal statements
Permission letters, declarations, and other prepared documents when remote electronic notarization is accepted.
A document title alone does not determine eligibility. Lakebound reviews the requested notarial act, not the legal meaning or sufficiency of the document.
Credibility you can check
A professional process without vague claims.
Named notary
You meet with Kayse Hartt, a commissioned Michigan Notary Public—not an anonymous call center.
Approved technology
Sessions use BlueNotary, which is listed by the Michigan Department of State as an approved remote-notarization vendor.
Transparent pricing
Current platform charges and Michigan's notarial-fee limit are explained before you request an appointment.
Privacy-conscious intake
Identification and private documents belong in the secure platform, not in ordinary email or the initial Google form.
Verify the process yourself. Review Michigan's official notary guidance and approved-vendor list, or view Kayse's public BlueNotary profile before requesting an appointment.

What nearby signers usually need to know.
Do you come to my location?
No. Lakebound is remote-only. You join the secure live-video appointment from your own private location.
Can I join from Toledo?
Potentially. Kayse stays in Michigan, while signer location, document rules, platform support, and recipient acceptance determine eligibility.
Can I get same-day help?
Same-day appointments may be available for eligible, ready documents. Availability is not guaranteed and no separate Lakebound rush surcharge is added.
What will checkout cost?
BlueNotary's current signer checkout starts at $25 for one notarization stamp. The exact platform total is shown before payment.
Notarial boundaries
The notary verifies and witnesses—not drafts or advises.
Lakebound can complete an authorized notarial act for an eligible request. It does not:
- draft, revise, or complete legal documents;
- choose the notarial act or certificate for a signer;
- interpret a document or advise whether it protects your interests;
- guarantee that a court, agency, lender, or other recipient will accept it;
- provide legal advice.
Ask the document issuer, receiving organization, or a qualified attorney about legal requirements before scheduling.
