Notary Public Services

Many documents we sign throughout our lives need official authentication from a Notary Public. Our notaries specialise in a wide variety of documents and will work with you to validate signatures and authenticate documents quickly and efficiently.

Your appointment could be as quick as 15-30 minutes. We’ll review your relevant documents and make sure they are prepared correctly. To make the process even quicker, you can send us a copy of your documents along with any instructions from the relevant authority ahead of time. This allows us to do the bulk of the preparation for you before our meeting.

If your situation is more complicated, we’ll discuss with you what extra work needs doing and how long it’ll take. We have a wealth of experience in handling complex documentation internationally, and work in multiple languages to ensure the right fit for you.

If you have concerns about any of the documents you’re bringing to us, we'll be happy to answer your questions and advise you on your best way forward.
