Our History

Founded in 1956 by E.J. Dugas, Toups Notary has grown through three generations of family leadership. Sharon Canter Toups followed in her stepfather’s footsteps in 1984, expanding services and strengthening community ties. Her husband, Robert Toups, joined the business in 2001, followed by their daughter, Haley Tivet, who came on board in 2010 and proudly became an owner in 2023. Continuing the family tradition, their daughter Talia Scott became a Notary Public in 2024.

In 1999, the business expanded by becoming an Auto Title Company, assisting customers with motor vehicle transactions. In 2006, we officially became a Public Tag Agency, or as we like to call it, “Your Personal Motor Vehicle Office.” The following year, in 2007, we launched Toups & Associates Insurance Agency, LLC to further serve our community’s needs. With every milestone, Toups Notary has remained committed to honesty, reliability, and personal care, growing alongside the community we are honored to serve.
