£435 quote when the standard is £120 elsewhere. Check your prices first and definitely shop around!

This matter involved a notarial service handled by one of our Partners and included drafting affidavits from scratch, not simply witnessing pre-prepared documents. Preparing and reviewing bespoke documents requires careful consideration, time, and compliance with strict regulatory obligations, including anti–money laundering requirements. Our service reflects the level of seniority, responsibility, and professional standards we maintain.
