A Story About More Than Just Paperwork

There is a moment every graduate dreams about. It is the moment a new job offer lands in your inbox, the moment all of that hard work finally pays off. For one young woman who had attended university right here in Oklahoma, that moment came not in the United States, but thousands of miles away in Spain.


She had earned her degree, worked hard, and built a life abroad. But when her dream employer in Spain asked her to submit her official university diploma and transcripts, properly apostilled and authenticated, she hit a wall. The documents were still in Oklahoma. The school was hours away from where she used to live. And she was on the other side of the world with no one nearby to help her navigate the process.


That is exactly the kind of situation The Sheridan Company was built to solve.



Who We Are and What We Do

The Sheridan Company is a full-service apostille and document authentication facilitation company based right here in Oklahoma, proudly serving clients in the United States and worldwide. We offer apostille facilitation for all 50 states and federal documents. We specialize in helping individuals and businesses get their important documents properly apostilled and authenticated, whether those documents are staying stateside or heading to another country entirely.


One of the biggest advantages of working with us is that we have a physical address. That means your documents can be mailed directly to our office, whether you are sending them from a university, a courthouse, a government agency, or even from your own home. It also means that once the apostille process is complete, we can ship your authenticated documents back to you, anywhere in the world. We are not just a middleman. We are your hands-on partner through the entire process.



The Story: A Graduate in Spain Needed Her Oklahoma Diploma Apostilled

Let us take you back to where this story begins.


A young woman had spent her college years right here in Oklahoma. Her university was just about two hours from our office, close enough to reach, but far enough to make things complicated if you are no longer living in the state. After graduation, she moved back home to Spain to be with her family and to pursue her career goals.


Not long after settling in, she received an incredible opportunity. A job offer came her way in Spain, and she was thrilled. But there was one catch. Because she had earned her degree in the United States, her new employer required her to submit her original university diploma and official transcripts. And those documents did not just need to be sent over. They needed to be apostilled.


For those who may not be familiar, an apostille is an internationally recognized certificate that verifies the authenticity of a public document so it can be legally accepted in another country. For documents like diplomas and transcripts being sent to a country that is part of the Hague Apostille Convention, like Spain, this step is not optional. It is required.


So, there she was. In Spain. With her documents still sitting in Oklahoma. And no idea how to get them apostilled from so far away.



How We Stepped In

When she reached out to The Sheridan Company, we knew exactly what needed to happen. And we got to work right away.


First, with her permission, we coordinated directly with her university to arrange for her original diploma and official transcripts to be mailed to our office in Oklahoma. The school was cooperative, and since we are located right here in the state, the mailing process was straightforward and secure.


Once we received her documents, we handled the apostille facilitation process on her behalf. We made sure everything was prepared correctly, submitted to the right office, and processed in a timely manner. There was no guessing, no delays, and no added stress for someone who was already managing a brand new job and a life in another country.


And when the apostille was complete, we did not just hand the documents off. We packaged her authenticated diploma and transcripts with care and shipped them internationally, straight to her in Spain. We made sure she had everything she needed, properly apostilled, properly packaged, and delivered right on time.


From start to finish, she did not have to set foot in Oklahoma. She did not have to call around trying to figure out how the process worked. She simply trusted us, and we took care of the rest.



Why This Matters

This story is not unique. Every year, thousands of students graduate from universities across the United States and move abroad, to Europe, Asia, South America, and beyond. When they land new jobs, apply for residency, or pursue further education in those countries, they often need their American academic documents apostilled and authenticated.


The challenge is always the same. The documents are in the U.S., but the person who needs them is not.


That is where The Sheridan Company comes in. We are here to bridge that gap, no matter how many miles are between you and your documents. We service clients in the United States and worldwide, and we offer apostille facilitation for all 50 states and federal documents. Whether you need a university diploma, a birth certificate, a marriage or divorce certificate, an FBI background check, a power of attorney, or court documents apostilled, we have the experience and the process to get it done. And whether those documents are headed to Spain, Italy, Germany, Mexico, Brazil, the Philippines, or any other country that participates in the Hague Apostille Convention, we are equipped to help.



What Sets The Sheridan Company Apart

There are a lot of companies out there that claim to handle apostille services. But here is what makes working with us different.


We have a physical location. This is a big deal. It means universities, courts, government offices, and even your family members back home can mail documents directly to us. There is no confusion about where to send things and no one trying to coordinate from a virtual office miles away.


We also handle the coordination for you. Just like in the story above, we worked directly with the university to get the documents secured and mailed to us. You do not have to chase anyone down or make awkward phone calls from across the world. We do that for you.


And once your documents are apostilled, we do not just stop there. We make sure they get to where they need to go, even if that is Spain, Italy, or anywhere else on the globe. We ship internationally, and we do it with care.


At the end of the day, what sets us apart the most is how seriously we take your documents. Your diploma. Your birth certificate. Your legal paperwork. These are important, irreplaceable pieces of your life. We treat them that way, every single time.
