"What is an Apostille?"
An apostille is an official certification that makes your U.S. documents legally recognized in foreign countries. Think of it as an internationally accepted stamp of authenticity.
The apostille process was established under the Hague Convention of 1961, and today over 120 countries honor apostille documents. Without it, a birth certificate, diploma, or legal document issued in the U.S. may not be accepted abroad.
A same-day apostille service provider helps you obtain that authentication quickly when timing matters.
How It Works (Apostille Edition)
1. Contact
Call, text, or email me — or fill out the quote form below.
Tell me more about the document(s) you need authenticated and which country they're headed to. I can confirm what your destination may need, and if necessary, I'm happy to confer with your legal counsel who might be assisting.
2. Pickup
Choose a date and time for pick-up and notarization.
I travel to your preferred location in Los Angeles, including homes, offices, studios, and hospitals. I bring everything necessary to complete the notarization.
3. Drop-Off
I travel to the Secretary of State and submit your documents on your behalf. No standing in line, no guessing the right forms — I handle everything. ​
​
Once processed, I return the document to you directly OR I mail on your behalf -- domestic or international -- to another location of your choosing, ready to use wherever they're headed in the world.​

Why Clients Choose Mark
I've spent multiple summers living in London and I've been the person standing in a foreign city realizing a document needed to be notarized — and that I'd left the easy option 5,000 miles behind me.
​
U.S. embassies charge $50 per consular seal — and they don't issue apostilles at all. A document that needs one has to be shipped back to the state that issued it and then shipped to you again, on someone else's schedule. Who has the time?!
​
Getting it done in Los Angeles before you fly costs a fraction of that and takes a fraction of the time. I coordinate with you and your legal counsel, I come to you and handle the notarization, and then manage the apostille through the California Secretary of State.
​
​Save yourself time and money, and let's get your documents ready to go before your big trip abroad!
I, Mark Orr, am a commissioned California Notary Public and am not an attorney licensed to practice law in the State of California. I am not allowed to draft legal records, give advice on legal matters, or charge a fee for those activities.
Notarial acts are limited to verifying the identity of signers and witnessing signatures. Clients who pay for an Apostille package are ONLY paying for notarization, travel, and the time dedicated to picking up, waiting at the Secretary of State's office, and dropping off/mailing the documents.
