They must first qualify as Public notaries and then obtain their scrivener qualifications while undertaking a training contract with a scrivener notary firm or by undertaking a period of supervision by a scrivener notary.

"We used John Venn & Sons twice already in the context of german law agreements and they have provided excellent service - very responsive and focused on delivering within tight timelines. We have worked specifically with Charles Henshaw and we highly recommend him; he is very competent and friendly. We will be looking forward to working with him again in the future.”

Had an appointment here today and everyone in the office was super nice. Even when it turned out that I forgot an important document for our appointment, Charles Henshaw solved the problem quickly. Also the email contact beforehand was quick and friendly. Nothing bad to say here, would definitely recommend!
