What Is a Notary Public?

A notary public is a trained professional who helps people with legal documents. We make sure paperwork is properly signed, witnessed, and legally binding. Think of us like the guardians of your important paperwork. A notary makes sure everything is done right, so there are no problems later on.

Notaries are trusted to:

• Verify your identity when you sign documents
• Make sure you understand what you’re signing
• Confirm that you’re signing by choice (no pressure or force)
• Keep accurate records and follow provincial rules

In British Columbia, notaries are trained legal professionals who can help with many legal matters—especially those involving documents, property, and planning for the future.
