For clients seeking a lawyer in Birmingham to certify documents, GB Lawyers are here to help.
What does certification of documents involve?
When we certify a document, we are confirming that the copy is reliable, valid and a true copy of the original. We will take both the original document and the copy and compare them. Providing the copy is accurate and a true likeness, we will be able to certify the copy. Usually, we will stamp the copy with a statement confirming that the document is a true copy, including our lawyer's name and address and signature.
Why get your documents certified?
Certification of documents in Birmingham can be required for many different reasons. The process confirms that the copy is valid, legal and official. It can be necessary under any circumstances where presenting the original of the document is not practical or necessary.
Our service
We certify documents for individuals, businesses and commercial organisations. Any document can be certified, but some of the most popular are:
- Academic papers
- Driving licence
- Exam pass certificates
- Financial papers
- Identification documents
- Passport
Translations of documents can also be certified for immigration or visa purposes. Depending upon your circumstances, you may find yourself requiring a certified copy of a specific document. The procedure is vital as, without it, organisations will not accept the copy paperwork as official or legally accurate.
Why use a lawyer to certify documents?
Having a document certified by a solicitor in Birmingham guarantees that the copy document is legitimate. It prevents fraud as submitting false documents is an offence. A fee will be charged, and this is agreed in advance. Before attending our office, please check what identification documents you will be required to present.
Documents are certified at our Birmingham office by Gabriel Bogdan, who is a Chartered Legal Executive and Fellow of CILEx.
