Report
In 2008 ceased practice as a solicitor and now work full time as Notary Public in Leeds and the Yorkshire area. I have many years of experience in both the legal and medical sectors, always with emphasis on excellent customer care. I started my career as an office junior in Gordons Wright & Wright Solicitors (later, just "Gordons") in Bradford in 1997 and then progressed to become Legal secretary to Chris Atkinson.
FAQs
Report
Our Fee is based on our time engaged - we do not charge "per document" - the minimum fee for 25 minutes of the Notary's time is 100 plus VAT. If we take longer than 25 minutes then this goes up pro rata. When you attend for your appointment that is when we commence work and that is when the clock will start - we prefer to deal with the papers in your presence.
