I am so happy with my experience with American Notary Group. I was SO STRESSED with trying to get my bond before my commission expired due to the crazy weather we've been experiencing and everything getting either delayed or shut down. I did not expect it to affect everything and I honestly had given up hope that I would get my $15000 bond in time. I made a call and immediately was put at ease with Abraham. He reassured me that he would put a rush on my order, get it to whomever it needed to get to and have it done within the next 24-48 hours. He was so confident that I really didn't have a choice but to have faith in him. He was great with communicating and following up with every step. He texted me updates, photos and all. It barely cost me that much more, even with an expedition fee. True to his word, it got done in about 36 hours. I cannot tell you the relief I felt when I got the text from him that I could pick it up and get it filed with the LA County Clerk on time. They are also on the official Secretary of State's list of approved notary public seal manufacturers, so I was able to get my seal done through them as well. If it weren't for Abraham's professionalism, expertise and knowledge, I would've lost $600 and another eight hours of my life having to go through everything for my notary commission all over again. Thank you so much, American Notary Group! I highly recommend them to everyone. read more

I had something notarized here months ago and had no issue. Decided to get my 2025 taxes done today. Was told to come at 4 and quoted $230-250 over the phone. I came on time and was told to come back later. Returned at around 6:30 and told it would be another 35 minutes. Came back 45 min later and told it would be about 10 more minutes. At this point it's me and my husband and our son waiting for another hour! now it's 8:45 and I'm finally signing and paying. He then tries to quote me $795!! But don't worry- he's gonna cut me a deal and make it $650. I reminded him of the quote which he denied and kept saying "you're a smart woman... you know what's happening". I told him I didn't go to H&R Block for first time in 10+ years and I know what the higher end cost of it looks like. Long story short he tried to charge me like $450 and I was completely over it. He tried to tell me to file a tax extension and go back to H&R Block if I like them. After 5 hours!!! Are you serious?! I gave him $460 in cash and told him I would NEVER return. I said I'm not the type of person to get mad like this but this is just wrong. This is my first ever yelp review good or bad. I'm just so disappointed and feel swindled. read more

I have gotten livescans done several times but usually go to a different location. For my most recent one, I had to choose from a specific list and found this location down the street from my house. Setting an appointment over the phone was extremely easy and accommodating. The fingerprinting process was quicker and easier than usual. I even lost my ID at their location and they went out of their way to locate it in the street where I parked. Additionally, the price was much more affordable than my prior experiences at different locations. read more

I totally recommend this company. I call them at 6pm and they did an insurance bond for me after 30 min and I picked up it at 7pm same day! So fast! read more

I truly appreciate Abraham for helping me get my bond before my notary commission expired. He is kind-hearted and went above and beyond to help me late in the evening during the holidays. I highly recommend him and his business. read more

I've long browsed Yelp, but never wrote a review. I'm writing my first review today because that's just how impressed I am with the kindness and service Mike, the owner, showed to me. In case any notary public is in a situation like I was and needs to purchase a Surety Bond in a rush, this is one of the rare businesses in LA where you can do that. I had unfortunate experiences with TWO SEPARATE businesses that claim to provide Notary Public Surety Bonds. Due to their negligence or incompetence, I was in a position where I would have lost my notary commission if I didn't obtain a Notary Surety Bond and record it with the County Recorder in Norwalk within 2.5 hours before closing. I was already in Norwalk when I frantically called nearly every Notary Supply company in the LA area whether they could issue a Notary Surety Bond to me on the same day. Apparently it's a rare service that a business can issue this bond to you on the same day with a wet signature, as is required. I started to believe it was impossible until I finally found Mike's business American Notary Group. Over the phone, Mike was the first company of many that I called who confirmed he could provide this bond with the wet signature. I had 2 hours to drive from Norwalk to LA's Eagle Rock to obtain this bond and back to Norwalk to record it with the County Recorder. Mike understood the situation I was in and assured me he would help me prepare the surety bond as fast as he could. Even so, I wasn't sure whether I could make the full commute in time due to rush hour traffic. Mike advised that it was worth trying and I'm glad he gave me that push because I miraculously was able to do all of that and had 15 minutes to spare before the Recorder's office closed. I have to highlight the kindness and optimism Mike showed to me. I'm grateful he was willing to go out of his way to prepare a surety bond for me within a rushed situation. I went from being treated as just a number with a corporate notary supply company to being treated like a human being with Mike. I will continue to obtain my notary supplies from American Notary Group for as long as I have a notary commission. This business blows all the other notary public supply companies out of the water. read more

I was in need of a Live Scan who had the certification from the federal government on a Friday before Christmas. Everyone I called was either leaving early or not available until the following week. My last call was American Notary Group and thankfully Abraham had availability to see me Friday evening. He was professional, extremely helpful and caring for my situation. He will be my go to notary now. FYI street parking in the front. read more

I will start By saying this is my 2nd personal run in with this very un-nice person!!! I would provide negative stars if possible. I am a very understanding person. However, after this last and final run in, including displeasures by friends and family members, I would very very highly recommend that anyone and everyone drive anywhere else except to his place of business!!! Abraham was late, rude, unprofessional, and impatient! There is also one across the street at Super Copy. I will never use his services ever again and pray no one else does!!! read more

Fantastic experience with American notary group! Between the excellent customer service to the quick speed in which I was processed, I recommended anyone needing a live scan to come here, you won't regret it! read more

Abraham is a true gentleman and his customer service skills really are AS GOOD AS IT GETS! He is willing to work with your needs and always accessible. Four years ago I received my second notary license after a long hiatus. I lived in Pasadena at the time and noticed American Notary Group on a google search; he was close and open on Saturday. I remembered his kindness and great customer service skills. I recently renewed my notary license and when i needed the stamp i sought him out remembering his kindness. I do not live in the area anymore but i made the trip just to give him my repeat business. As always, he was very accommodating. I recommend Abraham and American Notary Group to associates who need a notary license, stamp, or supplies and I will see him again in four years! read more

I took notary class last year. Abraham was very professional and his lecture was very easy to understand. I finished the class in one day. He prepared me well before class so I could pass the exam. He was helpful and flexible with my busy schedule. I am so glad that I took notary class with American Notary. Recommend American Notary read more

Terrible customer service. I called for an appointment so I could be Live Scanned. Asked if I needed any documents/forms and was told I didn't. Upon arrival I was informed I did need a form and just treated in a really rude manner. The man at the counter was like "what do you want me to do about it?" in an ugly tone. I left. I went to Ricardo's Tax Services & Live Scan Fingerprinting on Marengo Avenue in Pasadena and was treated with 5 Star customer service. read more

Mr.Abraham is a highly educated Instructor to teach Notary Class.I studied my Loan Signing Specialist class with this American Notary Group.Now I'm very confident to perform my all Notary work including Loan Signing Documents.

I know I can count on this business for help. I needed an important document to be notarized and Abraham helped me out so much. Customer service is great! I know who to call and recommend to anyone! I only accidentally went to this store because the notary across the street didn't have their notary lady there at that time so they told me to go across the street and I'm so glad they sent me to American Notary Group. Abraham was so friendly made everything workout smoothly because my schedule was so hectic. I'd totally recommend this place and I'd come back here again. I saved their phone number on my phone address book for any future services I will need. read more

I'm not well rehearsed in regards to Notary. I've had a few documents notarized and had the idea of becoming one myself. I called American Notary and Abraham has been a like a God sent. he is patient and kind. He walked through the process , explained and answered all my questions. He was also nice enough to accommodate my hectic schedule and he is kid friendly. I love that American Notary group has been in business for over 20years. They make becoming a notary one stop shop. The classes are nice sizes they even offer online courses. The office is clean and comfy. These guys are experts and I recommend them to anyone looking to start and or renew there Notary commission. They also offer lots of services like lives scan and passport photos. Love love love them! read more

If you want to be a Notary Public, moreover, want to understand the role of a Notary Public, take the 6 hour course from the American Notary Group. Mr. Abraham is a wonderful instructor. He really gets the students involved in learning and understanding the rules and regulations. What's really great about American Notary Group, they have live scan service, plus the materials, plans and packages necessary to start your business. Thanks Mr. Abraham for being so great!!! read more

Excellent same day service. ANG saved my life today. I called the same day as my notary commission and needed a bond. Great customer service. read more

Get service, even stayed open late for me to get my document notarized on time. This place rules!

I went here to buy my Notary bond which was no problem but the owner Abraham kept my original authorization to get stamps made. I never told him i wanted to order stamps I simply went there for a bond. WIthout telling me he kept my papers and did not tell me he had them. 2 months later he calls me telling me he has my authorization from and that he can get me a deal on stamps... TOO LATE i already had to write a letter to the secretary of state for a new form. I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS PLACE AT ALL. I spent many hours looking for my papers and I cant believe he kept them without my knowledge. read more

Had some rush paperwork I needed sent right away. Called and told to come right down. Very happy with service. Paperwork done quickly and right. Abraham was professional, pleasant and had a very calming effect on my stressful day. Thank you!! read more

Extremely helpful even in a pinch! We went here to do a live scan and they did everything to make sure we got the forms in on time. Really appreciated their support and guidance!!! read more

Not only was the service prompt, professional and precise, Abraham called me afterward to let me know I left my wedding band and engagement ring behind. A huge thank you to this honest gentleman and this great business. read more

I have gone to American Notary Group several times to notarize some documents. My family and I are clients for life. Abraham, the owner, is very nice and professional. There have been a few times when I've asked him to meet outside of his office hours since I had to work. He's always been flexible and accommodating. I am glad I found American Notary Group - thank you Abraham for the excellent service - always! read more

I've taken the notary class twice, as well as the loan certification course. Abraham is always available via email or phone if I need to solve a problem with a client. I also get my supplies here -- journals, certificates, etc. Abraham stays on top of all things legal, and even created a special stamp for me to help comply with a recent law that affected notarizations in California. American Notary Group is a real asset to the Eagle Rock community. Park across the street in the Walgreens lot to avoid the overzealous metered parking attendants that plague our boulevard. read more

This place is the best !!!! I called on a Saturday night because I needed a same day bond. I took my chances on calling because I did see that they were closed already. But awesomely, I spoke to Michael after hours and asked if they did same day notary bonds because my time to file my oath was Monday so I needed my bond ASAP. Michael was so AWESOME that he opened up the shop.for me on Sunday to get me my notary bond and E & O ready so I could file it Monday. Since I live in Palmdale and their shop is in Glendale, that's why he did me the huge favor of opening up Sunday morning just for me and getting my paperwork ready. I filled my notary oath Monday and this was all thanks to Michael who made this possible. American Notary Group is the best !! I'd recommend it to everyone. read more

I had a very good experience with their live scan services. Make sure to do some research and have the proper forms filled out. The people requesting the scan will provide you with them or you can get them from the state website. I would definitely recommend going here. read more

It was a pleasure walking in here, it's a very comfortable office with tranquil mint walls easing your mind. The service was fast, efficient, and done with a calmness and sense of ease. Based in my one experience I must recommend. read more

The ONLY state authorized seal manufacturer in the country that offers expedited service! My one-stop-shop for anything relating to Notary from now on! This is my first official YELP review that I've written after being a long time member and frequent user. Abraham was the reason I decided to commit to writing a review. He treated me with respect, offered great advice and went above and beyond what I had expected. Best of all, Abraham was able to make my Notary seals the same day! He has been in the business for over 25 years! I wish that I'd found American Notary Group rather than going through the National Notary Assoc. for my class and supplies. read more

Yesterday was hellish for me. The process of becoming a notary is complex and sometimes confusing. Not acquiring my bond before going to take my oath was a flub on my part. As a result, I got turned away from the courthouse and reminded that I had one week left to take care of everything. American Notary Group was the first place I called and Abraham was able to secure my bond quickly. He understood my predicament and that one week is not a lot of time when you work a full time schedule. I was able to go pick it up within the hour and will be able to complete my oath & bond process this week. It was efficient, economical, and absolutely necessary. He was professional, knowledgeable, and patient with my questions. He worked to find me a solution even though the whole situation caused me some stress. Because of his ability to help resolve my conundrum, I will be able to start notarizing very soon. Lastly, he was friendly and kind throughout this whole process. I'll definitely return to renew my bond in 4 years! read more

I took the notary class, and did not appreciate the constant interruptions. I passed the test on sheer luck, since I didn't learn much of anything. For some reason, no one else at this office was able to do notarizations, so we were interrupted throughout the class for that. Then they accepted latecomers to the class, including some woman that claimed that ANG lost her ID and ranted about not having her money order payment ready. We were delayed taking the test due to the latecomers being catered to. And we couldn't just sit and study during that time, since the Proctor arrived and required that we move our books and personal items away from the desk. read more

I was able to get my notary stamp and bond in 1 day! The service was professional and Abraham was very helpful.
