Welcome, Paralegals!

If you’re a paralegal, you’re already a powerhouse of knowledge and efficiency. But did you know that your notary stamp can open the door to new opportunities both in your current role and as a lucrative side hustle? At the Remote Online Notary Association (RONA), we’re here to help you succeed every step of the way.

Why Paralegals are Becoming Notaries

There’s been a growing trend of paralegals stepping into the notary world. Why? Attorneys need documents notarized daily, and having a notary on staff saves time and money. By becoming a notary, you’re increasing your value to your firm and enhancing your skill set.

But there’s more! Your notary stamp isn’t tied to your employer. It belongs to you, even if they paid for it. If you leave your current job, your notary commission goes with you. This opens up opportunities for:

• Remote Online Notarizations (RON)

• Independent notary work

• Diversifying your income streams
