Public notary
A public notary is able to witness signatures and certify copies of documents for use overseas.
This includes personal documents, such as birth and marriage certificates, and university transcripts, or commercial documents such as company incorporations and loan agreements.
As a public notary, Philip is able to assist by verifying your signature and authenticating copies of documents. We can also liaise with the Australian Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade to have them legalise documents or to apply an Apostille.
Trusts and Superannuation
A family trust can offer good asset protection benefits against creditors. Also, the trustee can usually distribute the income of the trust to the beneficiaries tax effectively.
