Who We Are

John Kopilow

John Kopilow of Legal Document Professionals & Notary Service is committed to providing you timely & cost effective solutions

John Kopilow holds a paralegal certificate and has owned Legal Document Professionals & Notary Service since 2011. His journey to becoming a committed Legal Document Assistant began with his experiences as an executor and a small claims lawsuit.
John served as executor of his parent’s estate which was done incompetently and caused him much stress and grief. Following that experience, while a small business owner, he had to take a client to small claims court for non-payment of fees. After winning his case he faced the difficulty of collecting the judgment. This led him to enlist the help of a Judgment Recovery professional and he eventually took a course in this area and opened up his own business where he successfully satisfied judgments for creditors.
During the economic crisis, the Judgment Recovery business became increasingly difficult. This is when John decided to apply his past experiences as an executor and small legal business owner and created Legal Document Professionals & Notary Service.

His passion is helping you to find the most streamlined and cost-effective solution to your situation. He has been in your place and understands the complex mix of emotions that come with it. Some situations require the help of an attorney and John works with a top notch team of attorneys and tax professionals to provide you with peace of mind.

What Our Clients Say

Mathias Dank

John was very prompt in taking care of my quit claim deed and notarizing the paperwork. Couldn't of made it easier for my case and also personally had it recorded with the county! Thanks again would highly recommend.

Nomadi Chum

John was very responsive, engaging, and eager to help with one issue my family was facing; he came to our home to discuss the matter. For a mobile notary service, his service offers extremely great value. Importantly, he thought out of the box and offered a solution that was godsend, but one that my family did not think possible before he visited. He acted quickly and deftly to get the matter resolved, so my family is a happy customer and we will definitely call on him for our legal documents & notary needs in the future.

Tony

John Kopilow is a bargain! Mr Kopilow was going to be a lawyer until he went into the Peace Corp for two years. John has helped me several times with non- attorney legal documents and setting up a Living Trust, all done very quickly, and professionally. John has saved me a lot of money doing these things you don't need a Lawyer for, at Lawyer prices. I will certainly use Mr. Kopilow in the future and you should too.
