If you need an important document certified, you’ll have to use a qualified lawyer who is authorised to do so. At Bates Wells and Braithwaite, our experienced team in Ipswich or Hadleigh are here to make the process straightforward and hassle-free.
Document certification is often required for passports, wills, property papers, or official forms when dealing with banks, mortgage lenders, or government departments. Not everyone can provide this service — it must be done by someone with the right legal qualifications. We are often asked to certify documents for our clients.
Some local providers may not be able to certify documents because they are not lawyers or solicitors. That’s where our Hadleigh team stands out. We’re fully qualified lawyers authorised to certify documents accurately and efficiently, so you won’t face delays or need to go elsewhere.
How can our lawyers help you?
We have a permanent office in Ipswich or you can also find us in Hadleigh Library every Tuesday, offering 30 minutes of free legal advice with a solicitor. You can book a morning appointment or simply drop in during the afternoon to get your documents certified or discuss any legal questions you have. We also have a slots at Kesgrave Community Centre occasionally.
Whether you’re sorting out paperwork for a house move, applying for a visa, or need documents certified for any other reason, we’re ready to help, here in Hadleigh, Ipswich or Kesgrave.
Get in touch or visit us at the library to speak to a solicitor who can certify your documents quickly and professionally.
