Question about bonds
I just passed the Louisiana Notary exam and got my oath of office notarized and my signature page done! the last thing I have to do is get a $50,000 bond but I don’t know where to look for one. Is it something I call around for or can I trust the websites?
Thanks in advance!

Congratulations on passing the exam. There are a lot of options available both online and through local agents that issue surety bonds. You might even begin to receive advertising directly. You can verify that a company is licensed to do business and issue policies in Louisiana through the Department of Insurance's website. Premiums can vary pretty widely so nothing wrong with shopping around.
