No a notary needs to be present and see the signature. I suggest you find an attorney and have things handled properly.
This is a serious issue. It is a crime for a person to notarize a signature that was not made before them. This to say nothing of the other issues involved here. Immediate action on your part is required. Feel free to contact me over the weekend and leave a number to return your call. Check out my blog on estate and trust disputes at www.lawfang.com
