A “Certified Copy” is an exact copy of an original document. A solicitor will copy the document and sign it to confirm that it is identical to the original. The wording of the Certification will depend on the precise requirements of those asking you to provide it.
Our charges for certifying documents start from £50 + VAT. It will depend on the size of the document.
If you require identify documents to be certified, an additional fee of £15 + VAT per person is needed to undertake an electronic identity check. We can only certify identity document if you attend with your documents in person.

Sometimes documents require a solicitor or professional to witness them. This means you sign in the presence of someone else who also signs. Our fee for this would be £50 + VAT for the first document and £10 + VAT for any additional documents done at the same time.
Please note this is for documents that require no legal advice.
