Notary law

Notarial law covers a wide range of legal matters and transactions where the involvement of a notary provides legal certainty, authenticity and security. Our notaries assist individuals, families, entrepreneurs and business owners with important personal and professional matters, helping them make informed decisions, reduce legal risks and protect their interests.

As part of our broader team of legal professionals, our notaries work closely with our lawyers to provide clients with comprehensive legal services under one roof.

Our Notorial Services

Our notaries provide personalized legal support in a variety of areas, helping clients secure their transactions, assets and legal documents.

Real Estate Transactions

We assist buyers, sellers and property owners throughout their real estate transactions, including the preparation, review and execution of notarized documents. Our team helps ensure that each transaction is properly documented and complies with applicable legal requirements.

Real Estate Financing

Our notaries prepare and review documents relating to mortgages, refinancing and other forms of real estate financing. We ensure that the legal aspects of your financing arrangements are properly addressed and documented.

Co-Ownership

We advise clients on co-ownership matters, including the preparation and review of declarations of co-ownership, co-ownership agreements and related legal documents. Our goal is to establish a clear legal framework for the ownership and management of shared properties.

Trusts

We assist clients with the creation and administration of trusts as part of broader asset protection and estate planning strategies. Our notaries help structure arrangements that reflect your objectives and provide appropriate safeguards for your assets and beneficiaries.

Protective Mandates

A protective mandate allows you to plan ahead in the event that you become unable to manage your affairs. We draft and review protective mandates to help ensure that your personal and financial interests are handled according to your wishes.

Wills

We prepare notarial wills tailored to your family situation, assets and wishes. A properly drafted will provides greater clarity regarding the distribution of your estate and helps facilitate the settlement of your succession. In Québec, a notarial will also avoids the probate process required for certain other types of wills.

Estate Settlement

Our notaries assist with the settlement and liquidation of estates, helping liquidators and beneficiaries navigate the legal steps involved following a person’s death. We can provide guidance regarding the administration of the succession, testamentary provisions and the transfer of assets.

Powers of Attorney and Other Notarial Acts

We also assist clients with powers of attorney and other notarial documents required for personal, financial or business matters. Our team ensures that these documents accurately reflect your intentions and meet the applicable legal requirements.

While our notaries handle the legal aspects of your transactions, estate planning and personal affairs, you can remain focused on your business, your family and the management of your assets.
