What should you do after confirming the appointment with the signer?

After confirming the appointment with the signer, updating your hiring party to inform them that the appointment has been confirmed is a critical step. This communication ensures that everyone involved in the process is aware of the appointment details, which helps maintain clarity and professionalism. The hiring party may need this confirmation for their records and to ensure that they are prepared for the meeting as well.

This step also reinforces the coordination between you, the notary, and the hiring party, fostering trust and efficiency in the transaction. Keeping all parties informed minimizes the risk of miscommunication or misunderstandings, which can lead to delays or complications during the appointment.
