We advise when a police report is necessary (stolen vs. lost) for your records.

A missing Louisiana dealer plate isn’t just an inconvenience; it’s a liability. If that plate ends up on a vehicle involved in a crime or accident, your dealership is the first call. We handle the immediate cancellation of the lost credential, process the “Affidavit of Lost Plate,” and issue your replacement tag on the spot to keep your sales operations running smoothly.

Fast, professional, and friendly. They helped me draft and sign my Power of Attorney with no confusion or stress. Highly recommend Title Authority if you want it done right the first time.

I needed a Power of Attorney to handle some legal matters for my mother. Title Authority explained every step clearly and had everything notarized the same day. Excellent experience from start to finish.
