Will
The notary helps you draw up a will which meets the conditions of validity imposed by law and which specifies your wishes taking into account your family and financial situation.
The notarized will also has the advantage of avoiding the delays and additional costs linked to its verification, that is to say the procedure of verifying your will with the court. Wills drawn up by a notary are authentic acts which are binding on everyone.
