Legal Professionals Commissioned for Life
B.C. Notaries are proud members of a select group of legal professionals commissioned for life by the Supreme Court of British Columbia. They differ from Notaries in other jurisdictions in that their scope of practice is much broader and more extensive than Notaries in other provinces across Canada (with the exception of Quebec Notaries). B.C. Notaries are trained in non-contentious legal matters, specializing in preparing documents that define and protect your interests in property. B.C Notaries do not argue cases before a judge and do not appear in court. Their role is to act as facilitators, committed to properly preparing and registering your legal documents.
B.C. Notaries have long been recognized by the public for their integrity and honesty. Our membership comprises approachable professionals who specialize in land law and estate planning documentation. This refined scope of practice means that Notaries are experts in their fields; they have vast knowledge of legal theory and legislation but also – importantly – they know how to practically apply and tailor their knowledge to meet the specific needs of their clients.
