Notary Employer Support

Are you a legal professional looking to broaden your expertise and enhance your career prospects?

Qualifying as a Notary is a valuable way to diversify your practice, strengthen your professional standing and offer clients a specialist service recognised internationally.

Notaries play an important role in authenticating documents for use overseas, supporting international trade and helping private clients with cross-border legal matters. Whether you are a solicitor, barrister or another qualified legal professional, becoming a Notary can open up new opportunities and add long-term value to your existing practice.

Why become a Notary?

Offering notarial services can help you stand out from other legal professionals and allow your firm to support clients who need international legal documentation.

Create an additional source of income

Many legal professionals combine notarial work with their existing practice, creating a complementary revenue stream while expanding the services they can offer.

Benefit from limited local competition

In many areas, there are relatively few practising Notaries. This can give you the opportunity to build a specialist service where demand may be strong.

Join an internationally recognised profession

Notarial practice is part of a long-established global profession. As a Notary, you can provide services that are recognised and relied upon around the world.

Develop specialist expertise

Notarial work gives you the opportunity to handle a wide range of international matters, helping you broaden your legal knowledge and develop a valuable specialist skill set.

Invest in Your Professional Development

Many employers recognise the value a qualified Notary can bring to their organisation. Adding notarial services can help firms attract new clients, strengthen existing relationships and enhance their reputation.

If you are considering the next step, preparing a clear business case can help you discuss funding for your notarial qualification with your employer.

Law Training Centre has created a Notary Career Progression Business Plan template and guide to help you approach this conversation with confidence. The template covers the key areas an employer may wish to consider when reviewing support for your studies.

Once you have identified the modules you need to study, download the template, complete the relevant sections and present it to your Manager, HR Manager or Training Manager.
