about this network
|
The Massachusetts Notary Public & Legal Support Network, established in 2005 by Korey Humphreys, is a statewide collective of independent legal support professionals who work cooperatively and share service requests based on geographic coverage. When a client submits a request—such as one originating in Fitchburg, MA—it is directed to the network member responsible for that area, who then manages the assignment from start to finish.
Membership is voluntary and invitation‑only. The network does not charge dues, collect fees, or hold public meetings. Each member is already an established service provider, so all service fees are paid directly to the individual professional assisting the client. Mr. Humphreys is a degreed paralegal, certified process server, and commissioned Notary Public for the Commonwealth of Massachusetts with over two decades of experience. His professional training includes certifications in Civil Litigation and Procedures, Private Investigations, Torts, and Criminal Law and Procedures. |

Massachusetts notary public - Mobile services
|
Our network members provide mobile notary public services throughout Massachusetts. A mobile notary public is a commissioned notary who travel to the client's location-home, office, hospital, or any agreed upon place-to perform notarial acts. They provide the same legally authorized services as a traditional notary, but with the added convenience of on-site, appointment-based service.

Subpoena services - draft, issue, serve, and/or domesticate
|
We are authorized to draft, issue, and serve subpoenas in matters pending before any Massachusetts court or government agency. Our notaries public who are also degreed paralegals possess the training and experience necessary to prepare subpoenas accurately and in full compliance with applicable rules.
This work is performed in accordance with M.G.L. c. 222 § 17, which requires that a notary public be duly qualified, trained, or experienced in a professional field before selecting, drafting, or completing documents related to that field. Because our notaries also serve as legal support professionals, they meet—and exceed—this statutory standard. Click here for more information. |
apostille & authentication services
|
For documents going to a Hague Convention country, we obtain a Massachusetts Apostille, confirming the legitimacy of the notarization or state‑issued document so it’s accepted abroad. For non-Hague countries, we handle the state and federal authentication and legalization process, including certification by the U.S. Department of State.
