What We Do
An apostille is a special certification that validates a public document for use in another country. It's essentially a way of getting a stamp of approval that says the document is genuine and can be trusted by the foreign country.
Here's a breakdown of how apostilles work:
-
Apostille Convention: This process is based on the 1961 Hague Convention Abolishing the Requirement of Legalization for Foreign Public Documents. By joining this convention, countries agree to recognize apostilles as a valid form of authentication for public documents.
-
Public Documents: These are documents issued by a government agency or authorized individual, such as birth certificates, court orders, educational diplomas, or business registrations.
-
Getting an Apostille: The process typically involves having the document notarized first, and then submitting it to the appropriate government authority (usually the Secretary of State's office) to get the apostille attached.
In short, an apostille helps save time and hassle when you need to use an official document abroad. It simplifies the process by ensuring the document is recognized by the foreign country without the need for further legalization.
Notary services are an essential aspect of legal documentation and play a crucial role in ensuring the authenticity and validity of legal documents. A notary public is a public official who is authorized to administer oaths, certify documents, and witness signatures. They serve as impartial witnesses who confirm that the signer of a document is who they claim to be and that they signed the document of their own free will.
The notarization process verifies the identity of the person signing a document and ensures they understand what they're signing. It adds an extra layer of security to important documents like contracts, wills, and power of attorney. Here's a general breakdown of the steps involved:
1. Prepare the document: Make sure the document is complete and free of errors.
2. Identify yourself: Bring valid government-issued ID to the notary appointment.
3. Signing and witnessing: Sign the document in front of the notary. They will witness your signature and verify your identity again.
4. Notarial stamp and certificate: The notary will complete a notarial certificate and affix their official stamp or seal on the document.
