DV Evidence Notary Service (Certified Chain-of-Custody Documentation)

A network of trained notaries and victim advocates who conduct in-person or secure video evidence intake sessions, creating legally-admissible, timestamped, chain-of-custody documentation of abuse injuries, communications, and statements. Victims receive a sealed, certified evidence packet they control; copies go to a secure third-party custodian (not the victim's device) that only releases on court order or victim authorization. The service combines human verification (notary attestation) with institutional custody—removing the 'he said/she said' vulnerability of self-collected screenshots.
