Re: Can a notarize custody contract between parents be enforced by the courts
A contract is a contract. It requires an offer, an acceptance, and consideration. If those three elements are present it is a contract despite the notarization. The notary is only a way to prove that the people who signed the contract are really who they say they are. There is nothing more to a notary.
