Certification Services
Fortiori Law provides a range of certification and witnessing services by appointment. We help clients who need solicitor-certified documents for property, identity, regulatory or transactional purposes.
How we help
We provide a practical appointment-based service for commonly requested certification matters.
Where a specific format is required by a third party, we review the instructions and confirm whether the certification can be completed in the required form.
This work often supports property transactions, identity verification, company administration and cross-border documentation.
Typical matters
- Certified copies of original documents
- Certified photographs
- Statutory declarations
- Affidavits
- Witnessing signatures
- ID1 and ID2 verification forms
Typical process
- Confirm the type of certification or verification required
- Review the originals and any prescribed form of wording
- Carry out the appointment and certify the documents
- Provide follow-up confirmation where the receiving body requires it
Frequently asked questions
Do I need to bring the original documents?
Yes. Certified copy work generally requires the original document to be produced so it can be checked against the copy being certified.
Can you witness statutory declarations and affidavits?
Yes. We offer statutory declaration, affidavit and witnessing appointments where appropriate.
Do all organisations accept the same certification wording?
No. Some organisations insist on a specific form of wording or process, so it is helpful to bring any instructions you have received in advance.
