Notarisation Explained

Notaries Public are the oldest branch of the legal profession, older than solicitors or barristers. Under the Legal Services Act they are regulated by the Faculty Office of the Archbishop of Canterbury.

Notarisation is the official process of certifying documents for use in other countries. This may involve verifying a person’s identity, confirming their understanding of the documents, and their capacity and willingness to be bound by it. 

A properly legalised notarial certificate will be accepted by most countries as verification of the matters certified.

Notarisation may also include certifying that: 

 ✔ A document is genuine 

 ✔ That it is a complete and accurate copy 

 ✔ The person signing has capacity to do so, understands it and wants to be bound by it. 

 ✔ The accuracy of a fact 

 

A notary does not advise on the matter and, unless qualified in the law of the relevant foreign country, does not advise on foreign law.

Very helpful and reliable
After a recommendation from a friend, I contacted Mrs Alex Jennings, Notary and Solicitor, of Heppenstalls. Over the last two years, I have required both services, and the help and advice I have been given on those occasions have been excellent. I was quite nervous initially, because I was unsure of the kind of help I actually needed, but Mrs Jennings was wonderful. She was very calm and put my mind at ease, and should the need arise, I would be more than happy to ask her again.
