This website provides more information on the the services I offer as well as answering the most common questions I am asked about what a Notary Public does. Please contact me if you have any questions or if you would like a quotation or to arrange an appointment. A Notary Public is a specialist lawyer who can witness or certify documents for use in foreign countries.
By virtue of the Notary's signature and official seal, authorities in other countries will be assured that the relevant checks have been carried out. As an example, when buying a property abroad you may need to give your overseas lawyer power to deal with the purchase. A Notary Public can watch you sign a Power of Attorney and then notarise this document to ensure that it is accepted in the country involved.

In order to ensure the quickest and smoothest process you will need to bring photographic identification such as a passport and a proof of address such as a utility bill to the meeting. Certain countries may also require the additional step of the document being Legalised. This is a process whereby the Foreign and Commonwealth Office confirm the validity of the Notary's signature and seal.
