    In England, this work area covers checking a person’s identity, witnessing signatures, and certifying copies of documents for use in England and abroad. A solicitor practising in this area acts as a notary public, confirms who someone is, witnesses the signing of documents such as affidavits, powers of attorney, and declarations, and certifies copies of original documents for use overseas or with authorities. The practice may involve liaising with banks, government departments, educational institutions, and employers to verify documents and ensure their proper legal use.

    “Very polite and friendly staff. I visited to swear to an affidavit and the whole process was smooth and straightforward. The team was professional, helpful, and took the time to explain everything clearly. Their charges were also very affordable compared to what I expected. Overall, a very pleasant experience and I would definitely recommend their services.”
