This course is designed to train the Reviewers/Signer of judgement affidavits the process in which Wells Fargo will receive, review, sign and notarize the judgement affidavits. While there are currently seven main roles in the judgement affidavit process; document preparer, reviewer/signer, exceptions processor, notary, quality controller, shipping and imaging processor and tea lead, the focus of this training will be on the reviewer/signer role with a high-level overview of the roles in the process. Job aids have been provided for details on the document preparer, reviewer/signer, exception processor, notary, quality controller, shipping and imaging processor and team lead roles. Although this instructor-lead training module is focused on the reviewer/signer role, all individuals involved in the process are expected to attend this training regardless of role, to gain foundational knowledge of the judgment affidavit process, the importance of the reviewer/signer role and the responsibilities of the reviewer/signer role, as all other roles in the process are in support of the reviewer/signer.
It is important to note that a judgment affidavit is a legal document submitted to a court of law. The in depth details of a judgment affidavit will be explored in this course. When a Wells Fargo team member signs the document in the presence of a notary, the document is filed with the court and can be used in court proceedings relating to a foreclosure.
***NOTE: The signer (Affiant) may be asked to appear in a legal proceeding (deposition) if there are any disputes as to the accuracy or validity of the affidavit they have executed.
