Notary Public London

I provide a friendly, efficient and professional notarial service to individuals and all companies across Central London, the City of London and Canary Wharf.

If the document is straightforward, already prepared and in the correct form it is likely that a notarial appointment will last no more than 20 - 40 minutes and the notarial act could be completed in approximately 30 minutes. If the document is not straightforward, or I am required to draw up the document, notarial certificate or make a proper copy, then the appointment will take longer. The time will depend on the complexity of the matter. An indication of the time will be given when making an appointment but an accurate assessment of the time required can only be given when I see what the document is and what is required.

Typical Stages of a notarial transaction

Each notarial matter is different and the requirements will vary according to whether the client is a private individual or a company. Some of the typical key stages are likely to include:

Receiving and reviewing the documents to be notarised together with any instructions you may have received

Liaising with your legal advisors or other bodies to obtain the necessary documentation to deal with the document (e.g. information from Companies House or foreign registries, powers of attorney etc).

Checking the identity, capacity and authority of the person who is to sign the document.

If a document is to be certified, checking with the issuing authorities that the document/award is genuine. In the case of academic awards, this would entail checking with the appropriate academic institutions.

Meeting with the signatory to verify their identity and to ascertain that they understand what they are signing and that they are doing so of their own free will and ensuring that the document is executed correctly.

Drafting and affixing or endorsing a notarial certificate to the document.

Arranging for the legalisation of the document as appropriate.

Arranging for the storage of copies of all notarised documents in accordance with the requirements of the Notarial Practice Rules 2019.
