A notary is an officer of the law who holds an internationally recognised public office. The duty and function of a Notary is to prepare, attest, authenticate and certify deeds and other documents, for use anywhere in the world.
His signature and official seal renders them acceptable, as proof of the matter attested by him, to the judicial or other public authorities in the country where they are to be used.
Clients often require notarial services when dealing with overseas matters. A Notary mainly acts as an impartial and legally trained witness to authenticate and certify the execution of the documents required or intended for use outside the UK.
It is important that a Notary is contacted as early on as possible as requirements vary from country to country and further authentication from the Foreign and Commonwealth Office or applicable Consulate may be necessary.
By virtue of the international status of his office, the signature and seal of a Notary is recognised as evidence of a responsible legal officer in most countries of the world. with disputes over land and property, partnerships, product liability, contracts, mortgages and insurance claims.
If you have a document which needs to be "Notarised" "Legalised" or "Protested" before a Notary Public, we can offer a fast and efficient service for all these matters from our office in Wigton, Cumbria. Usually we can deal with them while you wait but legalisation takes 36 hours as the document has to be completed and sent to the foreign office.
