Bring the right things. Leave in twenty minutes.
Notarial work is quick when the paperwork is right and impossible when it isn't. The list on this page is the whole of the difference — read it before you come and the appointment takes exactly as long as it should.
Don't date it either — It gets dated on the day, in front of us
Leave the boxes you're unsure about — An empty one we can discuss beats a wrong one we can't undo
Bring the whole document — Including the pages you think are irrelevant. They generally aren't
A power of attorney — The unsigned document, and the full name and address of whoever it is for
A company document — The company's registration details, and evidence you're allowed to sign for it
A certified copy — The ORIGINAL. A photocopy of a photocopy certifies nothing at all
Anything for another country — The country's name, and whatever instructions they sent you, word for word
A translation — Both versions, plus the translator's details if one has already been used
What a notary does not do
Advise on the contents
We verify who you are, and that you signed freely knowing what you were signing. Whether the document is a good idea for you is a different professional's job, and we'll say so if you ask.
Guarantee it will be accepted
The authority receiving it decides that, in their country, under their rules. We can say what is usually required and we follow their instructions exactly — but the decision is theirs.
Finish the job with a stamp
Many documents then need legalisation or an apostille, which is a government step on a government timetable. We arrange it; we do not control how long it takes.
Each further document, same appointment — $45
A certified copy — $45 per document
Out of hours, or at your address — $180 plus travel, agreed before we set off
Legalisation or apostille — The government fee at cost, plus $80 for handling it
A document we've had to redo — Nothing, when it was our mistake — and we tell you whose it was

“Emailed the first page at nine, had the list back by ten, and was finished by four. The list was the entire reason it worked.”

Power of attorney
“I'd already signed it. They told me on the phone before I set off rather than when I arrived, which saved me a whole day.”
