How To Start
Starting with IDEA Services is simple.
Six steps from "I have a document" to "it's done" — with a clear quote, a firm timeline, and a specialist guiding every stage.
One process, every service.
Whether you need an apostille for Spain, a certified translation for USCIS, or a notary at your hospital room tonight, every IDEA Services engagement follows the same disciplined path. You always know what happens next, what it costs, and when it will be finished.
The steps below take you from first contact to final delivery. Most clients complete Step 1 in under five minutes — a phone call is often all it takes.
Step 1
Tell us what you need
Book an appointment online, call us, or send your document details through a service request form. Tell us what the document is, where it needs to go, and when you need it.
Step 2
We review your documents free
We review your document against the destination's requirements — the right certificate, the right authority, the right translation format — before anything is filed. No guessing, no rejected submissions.
Step 3
Get your clear quote and timeline
You receive an itemized quote with the processing tier (standard, expedited, or rush), the total cost, and the expected completion date. Nothing is charged until you approve.
Step 4
Send your documents your way
Depending on your service: upload documents electronically, mail them to our processing office, or book a mobile notary to come to you — home, office, hospital, or closing table.
Step 5
We process and keep you posted
We handle the filings, certifications, and translations, and keep you updated at every stage. You always know where your documents are and what happens next.
Step 6
Receive your finished documents
Receive your completed documents by secure mail, courier, or digital delivery — with every seal, certification, and translation verified before it leaves our office.
