Notary services for individuals
Blake Morgan’s Notary services offer a Notary operating out of our Oxford office, whose main role is to certify and authenticate documents for use overseas for private individuals and commercial businesses.
Allen Townsend is a Notary who operates entirely independently from Blake Morgan but is available at our Southampton office.
In many countries, in order for a document to be accepted, it may also have to be ‘apostilled’ as well as certified by a Notary public. Our Notaries are familiar with these requirements and will advise you accordingly.
