Apostille – Much Cheaper than Airfare!
You have a house in Naples, Italy; and you want to sell it. Many papers will need to be signed in front of an Italian notary. One way to process the transaction is to book a flight to Naples and remain there during the process; signing documents and bringing them to a local notary. There will probably be "some" delays. Your budget return flight will be missed as you wait for the legal process to grind along. Perhaps the buyer will be unavailable for a planned session. The "go there and do it yourself" option will most likely take much more time and expense than planned.
There is a better option. Hire an attorney based in Naples. Give your Italian attorney a limited Power of Attorney granting the right to sign your name on all documents necessary for the property transfer. Your attorney will need you to provide the Power of Attorney with the (usually) internationally recognized Apostille, attesting to your signature. I have processed many Apostilles for similar transactions; full details are at my web site: http://kenneth-a-edelstein.com – in the menu item Apostille Processing.
You obtain, from your Italian attorney the locally approved, in this case Naples; Power of Attorney form; it can be emailed to you; and forwarded to me for printing on legal size paper if necessary. You sign it in my presence, and I obtain the Apostille; which is added to the document. The document now has the legal status as if you flew to Naples and signed the Power of Attorney in Italy.
Thus the Apostille bearing document has the status of having a notarization that has near worldwide acceptance. I say "near" because there are a few countries that do not honor the Apostille – but the vast majority of nations do.
There is no need to fly to Naples to give your attorney a locally acceptable Power of Attorney. My Mobile Notary service will print as many copies as required (be sure to inquire how many your processing will require,) bring them to your home or office; and notarize your signature for each copy. After that, I will go thru the processing steps to obtain the Apostille, usually the next day after you sign for each required copy. Note that a Xerox copy of a notarized document is not itself a notarized document. Not only will the copy lack a raised seal; it also lacks your original signature. It is impossible to obtain an Apostille for a Xerox copy – each must have an original signature and notarization.
