Important professional boundary
Witnessing is not legal advice
A Commissioner for Oaths verifies identity, witnesses signatures, administers oaths or affirmations and performs permitted certification. We do not advise on the legal effect of a document or decide what wording you should use.
We do not draft affidavits, statutory declarations, legal letters or other legal documents. If wording must be prepared or reviewed, contact the relevant authority or a solicitor before arranging the witnessing appointment.
