What is a Notary?
A notary is a specialist lawyer. In England and Wales, notaries are appointed and regulated through the Faculty Office of the Archbishop of Canterbury.
“Notary” or “notary public” is a protected title and only those qualified and registered can call themselves notaries.
The principal role of a notary in England and Wales is to “attest the authenticity” of deeds and other legal documents for use abroad.
Attesting means much more than simple certification (checking copies against the originals). If the documents have been attested by a notary it means that courts and other bodies abroad can accept them without having to make any further checks themselves.
Notaries can also prepare powers of attorney, “protest” bills of exchange and offer other legal advice.
About me
I am a Notary Public based in Orpington, Kent and I offer notarial services to businesses or individuals at my office or I can travel to your location.
I also practice as a Certified Translator since 2018 and enjoy combining my two professions with the third one, that of being a wife and a mother of 3 wonderful boys.
I hold a GDL(Graduate Diploma in Law) and LPC(Legal Practice Course) from BPP Law School. I have the notarial practice diploma qualification from the University College of London and also hold an LLM in International Law from Coventry University.
As a Notary I am very receptive to my clients' needs and try to find a solution quickly and efficiently (working evenings and weekends or traveling outside my usual area).
