Hello everyone! Welcome to my page. My name is Kevin Espinales with KJ TAXES. I have an accounting degree from Post University, and I am currently working on my bachelor's degree from National University, majoring in organizational leadership. I like to think of myself as a skilled professional in accounting and finance with several years of experience in the field. I have developed a comprehensive understanding of financial management, analysis, and reporting. 

Throughout my career, I have worked in various role within the accounting and finance industry, which has equipped me with a diverse skill set, I have experience in financial planning, budgeting and forecasting, as well as conducting financial analysis to support strategic decision-making. I am well-versed in financial statement preparation, ensuring compliance with accounting standards and regulations.

When I’m not immersed in the world of accounting and finance, you can often find me cherishing precious moments with my loving wife and family. Whether it is sharing laughter over a delicious meal or going out on another memory filled adventure together, their presence brings me joy and fulfillment to my life. I also enjoy staying active, including going to the gym, swimming or going for walks. I believe in maintaining a healthy work life balance. My dog is not just a pet, but a cherished member of my family bringing boundless love, loyalty and endless tail-wagging joy into our lives. I also believe in contentious personal and professional development and enjoy reading books and attending industry conferences and seminars. 

Prevention of Fraud

Fraudulent activities can be easily prevented if you have a notary public present at the time of signing the documents. This is because the notary public will not only ask the signers to prove their identities but he will also ensure that the documents being signed are also original. Signature on photocopies cannot be notarized. Notary publics will also ensure that the person signing the documents is not doing so under any threats or without freewill.

Notaries cannot oversee the signature of a document in which they might have any interest. A notary public is supposed to be an impartial and neutral party, “impartial” being the key word here. It increases the confidence of both parties because it ensures that their documents are being handled by a third, neutral party who will oversee the entire process without any bias. A notary public might be held liable for malpractice if he shows inclination or favoritism towards any one of the parties.

If you own one of those businesses where you enter important contracts everyday then it might be feasible for you to hire a notary public in your staff. However, for individuals the most feasible and practical option will be to appoint a mobile notary service.
