In an increasingly international world, the need for reliable and experienced notarial legal services has never been greater.

What Does a Notary Public in Central London Do?


In England and Wales, a notary is a qualified specialist lawyer appointed by the Court of Faculties and regulated through the Faculty Office of the Archbishop of Canterbury. A notary’s role extends beyond simply witnessing signatures.


At Staple Inn Notaries and International Lawyers, our work frequently includes:

  • International powers of attorney

  • Overseas property transaction documents

  • Company and corporate documents

  • Affidavits and statutory declarations

  • Apostille and legalisation services

  • Certified copies of passports and corporate records

  • Foreign probate and succession documentation

  • International banking and finance documents

  • Trust and estate documentation

  • Cross-border commercial agreements


Many overseas authorities, banks, courts, embassies and foreign lawyers specifically require documents to be notarised by an English notary before they will be accepted abroad.
