Signature witnessing by a solicitor in London / Statutory Declarations / Affidavits / Certifications

Do you need a solicitor to witness your signature?

Some firms of solicitors whose offices are not local to clients ask that they have their signatures witnessed on documents by another solicitor who is local to their client. This is often to provide them with the assurance that the document has been executed correctly and there are no chances of any fraud being committed.

Ola Leslie Solicitors offer witnessing services at competitive rates; the fees being dependant on the complexity of the requirement. Our certifications as solicitors are recognised within England and Wales.

Same day appointments are always offered and usually only take a few minutes.
