What are the tasks of a notary?
Notaries are legal practitioners appointed by the state who provide independent, impartial and objective advice in many areas of law.

German notaries play a key role in real estate law, mortgage law, contract law, corporate law as well as family and succession law. The intervention of a notary is required by law in legal transactions with long-term effects and of particular economic or personal importance for the parties concerned. Such cases are, amongst others, the sale of land, the creation of a mortgage, the formation of a Private Limited Company (GmbH) or a Public Limited Company (Aktiengesellschaft), certain corporate share deals or asset deals, corporate mergers and matrimonial property agreements.

Civil law notaries act as independent, impartial and objective advisers of all parties to a transaction. They examine the will of the parties, draft the contracts and instruments necessary to carry out the intended transaction and ensure that the contractual clauses are in full compliance with the law.
