Sorry I didn't mention it at the beginning... The whole thing is happening in California.

 I just want to analyze the whole issue from a legal standpoint. Is the title company's demand to get the docs "re-signed" legal?

 The lender did not send the docs to an attorney. I got them reviewed by the real estate attorney I've been working with for years. I got these docs notarized by the notary who works for my lawyer's company...

The lender claims this is the only the title company  that provides the suitable title insurance policy 

My lender insists on working with the current title company. I am afraid I don't have any choice.

Hello,

I got the loan docs notarized in my lawyer's office but the title company refuses to accept them as they only work with notaries they've selected themselves. What should I do? 

I am interested in the options I have in case of mail-away closing (California only).

Yes, I am deeply concerned with the highly inflated price that the title company would like me to pay for their notary service and what is even more frustrating, they strongly insist on using their notary. Don't know if it depends on the title company... I just wanted to know if there is any legal basis behind their requirement

Is it possible that a borrower picks a notary himself?  Are there any laws in CA that prohibit such practice?
