In the United States, a notary public is a person appointed by a state government (the governer, lieutenant governer, state secretary, or in some cases, legislature) and whose primary role is to serve the public as an impartial witness when important documents are signed. 

The Milam Consulting Group, LLC offers notary services to clients with documents typically requiring an acknowledgement such as contracts, deeds, agreements, powers of attorney, etc. 

These documents contain terms to which the signer is agreeing.
