About

My name is Paulette Kates, and I am an experienced signing agent based in Akron, Indiana. I have been a professional signing agent since 1998 and currently operate Kates Notary & Tax Service, where I provide clients with a professional office setting for their closings when needed. I am commissioned in Indiana (IN #484474 and IN #676639) and offer reliable, detail-oriented notary services.

I am available 24/7 and handle a wide range of transactions, including refinances, home equity lines of credit, commercial and residential purchases, reverse mortgage applications, and reverse mortgage closings. I also travel to title companies on busy days to provide on-site support, and I work with attorneys to take depositions and notarize signatures at a client or victim’s home.

  • CSA-certified signing services with laser-printed, e-sign capable documents
  • Mobile services including hospital and jail signings
  • Fax, email, internet, and mobile hotspot for fast, accurate document handling
