We explain, in plain terms, when an Apostille is sufficient and when consular legalisation is required. This guide sets out the practical steps for Hague and non‑Hague destinations, the role of a notary, translation and timing, and the common pitfalls that cause delays.

If your matter involves international property, corporate transactions or high‑value private affairs, plan from the destination backwards: identify the receiving authority, confirm exact requirements and then arrange any required notarisation, FCDO authentication and embassy processing.

How long does probate take in London? In many straightforward cases the Grant of Probate can be obtained in roughly 4–8 weeks. Complete administration of a simple estate commonly takes 6–12 months. More complex estates — London property, cross-border assets, tax issues or family disputes — often take 18–24 months or longer.

At Staple Inn Notaries we focus on preparation, accuracy and early identification of international document requirements so executors avoid avoidable delays. We combine notarial ex*****on, apostille and legalisation with private client and cross-border advice to keep transactions moving and to make overseas authorities accept documents first time.

When someone dies, the family often wants one clear answer: when will the estate be sorted? In London, that answer depends on the size of the estate, the quality of the paperwork, tax issues, property, debts and whether assets are held overseas. Probate itself is only one part of the journey. The wi...

I explain why dying without a valid will in England and Wales can produce unintended outcomes — especially for London estates with property, foreign assets or unmarried partners. The Rules of Intestacy determine who inherits, who administers the estate and when tax issues arise. Key points: a surviving cohabiting partner has no automatic intestacy right; property ownership (joint tenants versus tenants in common) often decides practical outcomes; overseas assets add extra authentication and Apostille requirements. Staple Inn Notaries assists with notarial certification, identity verification and coordination of Apostille or consular legalisation — ensuring documents travel between jurisdictions without delay.

Dying without a valid will does not mean that the law has no plan for your estate. It means you lose the chance to choose the plan. In England and Wales, the Rules of Intestacy decide who inherits and who can take charge of the estate. They do not ask who you trusted most, who cared for you, or what...

The wrong choice can mean a rejected document, a missed overseas deadline, or paying twice for work that could have been planned correctly the f...
