It makes plenty of sense to have your notarial work carried out in a business and commercial environment and by people who understand the urgency of things and the value of time because this way, you know that whatever needs to be done will be done properly and with the greatest possible speed. And as is always the case with Bains Cohen Solicitors, common sense prevails which means that we never allow ourselves to act like bureaucrats or administrators but instead you should expect us to be as practical and as helpful as we possibly can, which means that once you visited us for your notarial work, whatever it might be, you are likely to feel that you have found yourself a lawyer for life because you will see for yourself the difference.

Notary public work can be very technical and always requires the ultimate level of accuracy. There are a few hundred practicing Notary Publics in the whole country, mainly because of the high level of training which is required before one can become a Notary Public. This is why it is always better to arrange for your notarial work to be carried out as early as possible. This is also the reason why the fees paid to a Notary Public for signing and witnessing documents are higher than those paid to a solicitor. The training of a Notary Public is different to the training solicitors receive because a Notary Public needs to be familiar with many aspects of international law and the way the law operates in other countries. So if, when you come to see us, you have a question which relates to international law, to foreign company law or any other international law matter, it is likely that we will be able to answer it for you.

You can find our price guide for carrying out notarial tasks here. The guide will normally apply to most matters but sometimes we can see from the outset that a notarial matter falls outside the guide because it requires much more time than usual to be devoted to it and in such case we will discuss our fees with you before we get the job done.

In the meantime, we do suggest that you book your appointment with a Notary Public early, because at times you will find it difficult to get an appointment which means that you could end up being asked to pay extortionate fees to get your notarial work done ahead of the queue . Book your appointment with a Notary Public now, by calling us on 0208 252 7373 or if you are reading this page after usual working hours and you want your booking to be given priority so that it can be dealt with first thing in the morning on the next working day, send us a ‘call me back’ request using the form below.
