As confirmed by the Notaries' Society of England and Wales, English notaries may practise in a wide range of legal areas, including company and commercial law, property law, probate and succession, trusts, powers of attorney, family law, and related advisory work, in addition to their specialist notarial functions. This national authority enables Staple Inn Notaries to advise and act for clients across England and Wales, including on complex and cross-border matters.
