You must not notarize a document if you are what in relation to it?

  1. Agent

  2. Employer

  3. Lawyer

  4. Trustor or Trustee

The correct answer is: Trustor or Trustee

Notarization is a legal process where a notary public verifies the authenticity of a document and certifies it with a seal or stamp. As a notary public, you should not notarize a document if you have a personal interest in it or are related to it in any way. This includes being an agent, employer, or lawyer involved in the document. Therefore, these options are incorrect. The role of trustor or trustee is not specific enough to determine if there is a personal interest or relation to the document, so it is the only correct answer.
