Andrea was so fast and informative. Literally called her to ask if she was available and I had an appointment and was done within the hour. The customer service I received from her is not common now a days. She was kind, fast, and informative! Saved her number for any notary and live scan needs I might need in the future. I wouldn’t even second think it I would call her and make your appointment at any given time. Can’t thank her enough for taking us last minute and being so helpful on a Sunday! Definitely going to pass her information to friends and family as well!!

Andrea was incredibly helpful, and this was the smoothest and most convenient experience I’ve had getting LiveScans done. Cannot overstate how grateful I am that she was able to help us on a Sunday. It was easy to book the appointment, her directions were clear, and the whole thing was done efficiently. She went above and beyond by explaining the process and helping when one of our fingerprints were unclear. I will definitely keep Andrea in mind in the future when I have staff get LiveScans done!
Eliot Dowens

Andrea is absolutely incredible! I chose her for my live scan because I saw zero negative reviews, and she earned that reputation! She went above and beyond. Andrea was so professional and thorough. She let me know everything I’d need ahead of time so I’d be prepared. She was so helpful with finding the place, she was on time, and she was thorough with the documents, explaining everything as she went. She even provided back-up scans just in case.

On top of all that, Andrea is also so friendly and easy to talk to. I felt completely at ease and that I was in good hands with her. You will not find somebody better! It was a 12/10 experience! Thank you, Andrea!
