Notary Services

We offer notary legal services through Andrew Mortimer, a partner and solicitor in Stone King who also practises as a Notary Public. He deals with all types of clients – private individuals, businesses, charities and schools.

His notary practice is entirely separate from Stone King LLP, although he’s based in our Bath office. His practice as a Notary Public is regulated through the Faculty Office of the Archbishop of Canterbury, 1 The Sanctuary, Westminster, London SW1P 3JT.

Office visits for corporate clients in and around Bath can also be arranged. For more information (including pricing, insurance cover and complaints procedure) please see his Terms of Business.
