A Notary is a qualified legal practitioner; many notaries are also solicitors but not all of them. The notarial profession is the third and oldest branch of the legal profession in England and Wales, with Dickinson Parker Hill having a long-established track record in providing notary public solicitor services to clients in Ormskirk, Liverpool and Lancashire.
A notary solicitor can authenticate or legalise any document for use in another jurisdiction. For example, if you are buying a property in Spain, you might need to execute a power of attorney to enable your Spanish lawyer to complete the purchase for you. This power of attorney may need to be signed in the presence of a Notary, who can witness your signature and can ensure that correct formalities are observed, allowing the legal process to move forward effectively.
The need for a Notary to be involved will be dictated by the requirements of the country where the document is to be used. Here at Dickinson Parker Hill, Michael Prendergast can provide expert notarial services to private individuals and company clients, either on a one-off or ongoing basis, depending on your notary public service needs. He is happy to speak to you about all of your notarial service requirements and help you to determine the ideal legal steps to take.
