Why Is Notarization Important for Agreements?
Notarizing agreements serves several essential legal purposes that protect all parties involved:
- Identity Verification – Notarization confirms the identities of all signatories through official verification methods, preventing identity fraud and ensuring that all parties are who they claim to be.
- Prevention of Disputes – A notary public serves as an impartial witness to the signing, ensuring all parties sign voluntarily and without coercion. This is particularly valuable if the agreement is ever disputed in court.
- Enhanced Legal Credibility – Notarized agreements carry greater legal weight and admissibility in court. Courts and legal authorities often give preference to notarized documents due to their verified authenticity.
- Compliance with Legal Requirements – Some agreements require notarization under Canadian law to be legally valid. Without notarization, such agreements may be deemed unenforceable.
- Prevention of Fraud & Tampering – A notarized agreement is protected against unauthorized alterations after signing, ensuring the document remains legally binding in its original form.

By notarizing your agreements with
