Need a notary?
Hire someone you can trust
As a fully qualified Notary Public, I provide a wide variety of notary services for businesses and individuals.
Save time and ensure peace of mind. My notary services provide fast and reliable document verification for your important transactions, proving authenticity for legal use both at home or internationally.
Notary services verify the identity of the person(s) signing the document(s), witness the signing of document(s), and affix a notary seal to the document(s) to maintain its integrity.
Whether you are getting married, working, moving, studying, or looking to buy or sell a home abroad my notary services can help you authenticate your documents for use across the World. A notary public is crucial for personal documents across borders, ensuring their legal validity and authenticity.
Common personal documents requiring notarisation include:
- Birth Certificates: For official purposes, such as applying for a passport or driver's license.
- Death Certificates: For settling estates, obtaining life insurance benefits, or other legal matters.
- Real Estate Transactions: For deeds, mortgages, and powers of attorney related to buying or selling a home.
- Affidavits: For various personal matters, such as proving residency or income.
- Powers of Attorney: Authorising someone to act on your behalf, especially if you are unable to do so due to illness or travel.
