Matthew's notarial practice is operated totally independently of the practice of Thomas Flavell & Sons.
A Notary Public's main duty is to authenticate documents and forms for use outside of England and Wales. Any company or individual looking to conduct business or a transaction abroad is likely to require a Notary Public.
As a Notary, it is one of Matthew’s duties to ensure that the people appearing before him are properly identified and he will normally require to see a passport together with another item confirming the appearor`s address. All transactions by limited companies need to be supported by similar evidence of identity and the authority of the appearing officers of the company.
Matthew does not advise on the effect of the documents he is asked to authenticate. If Matthew is asked to work in a foreign language he does not understand sufficiently, he may have to ask for a translation or restrict his authentication.
Some of the services that Matthew can provide include:
Witnessing the execution of documents
Authentication of signatures
Dealing with land and property overseas
Verifying the translation of documents
Legalisation of the notaries' signature and seal by the Foreign and Commonwealth Office and/or embassy of the relevant country
Authenticating personal documents for immigration, emigration, working abroad or marriage overseas
Provision of Notarial copies
Authenticating the execution of Powers of Attorney for use overseas
