We understand how to support families and individuals with their private international assets, business and activities, and where the role of a Notary fits in.

Borne out of her personal in-house experience, our managed service approach to notarisation, FCDO and legalisation is intentional. We are relationship driven, with clients who have been with us for 20+ years, as well as welcoming new clients. All are treated with the same responsiveness, professionalism and care. Family Office Notary was developed in response to our clients needing an agile, responsive tailored service to support their private needs.

Supported by client concierge, FCDO, embassy and legalisation and document co-ordination practitioners, we deliver a mobile, agile, discreet, personable and expert service.

Do You Need
Notarisation?

Countries (and sometimes type of documents) have differing requirements to ensure a document is ‘beyond proof’ and of integrity. It may be simple notarisation, or it could involve FCDO, chamber of commerce and embassy. It is always best to check with us about the specifics. Our Free help – notary and legalisation guides you through what is needed and we are on hand to provide complimentary advice to your team.

25 YEAR NOTARY MILESTONE IN 2024

Having found it hard to get a Mobile Notary to see her board directors whilst in her first in-house job in aviation in the 90’s, Dawn Stallwood, decided if ‘you can’t beat them, join them!’ Dawn qualified as a notary on her 25th birthday in 1999; which will be 25 years ago in November 2024! Back then, Dawn was one of the youngest (and female) notaries in the country, but where did the time go? During 2024, Dawn will share her insights into international business for corporates and private families and integrity practices drawing on her extensive client experience.

tESTIMONIALS

WHAT OUR CLIENTS KINDLY SAY

We do not advertise who we serve and work with, preferring to keep our client names confidential. We can provide private references from FTSE 100, multinational, private equity, SME’s, family business, private individuals and family,, high growth tech and professional advisors. We care deeply, collect friends through business, and receive many referrals and a lot of repeat business (sometimes years later). So we must be doing something right! We are very grateful to serve our clients and their team members.

"As Executive Assistant to the CEO, I find the service that Dawn and her team provides absolutely invaluable. Every country has their own set of requirements which are difficult to understand if you do not have the relevant knowledge. Dawn helps me through the “minefield”. Her support is vital in ensuring that our documents are certified and processed in a timely manner to support our international business".
