A Notary Public is a legally qualified professional, often a solicitor in England and Wales, who possesses additional qualifications and training that grant them the capacity and authority to act in legal transactions, particularly those involving foreign jurisdictions.
The role of a Notary Public is internationally recognised, and their acts carry special evidential status abroad, helping bridge the gap between different legal systems and ensuring that transactions are legally valid across borders.
Our Notaries, Peter Meadows and Piers Meadows, are appointed by the Court of Faculties and are fully qualified to assist you in a wide range of notarial services.
