Details

The Authoritative Text for Notaries
 

  • The only reference work on notarial practice in Hong Kong and covers new legislation
  • Authoritative - written by Mr Nigel Ready with the involvement of the Hong Kong Society of Notaries
  • Fully comprehensive - Integration with Brooke's Notary (UK)

For over 100 years, Brooke's Notary has been the authoritative text for notaries in common law jurisdictions. In recent years, the increase in regulation of international business affairs has meant more work for notaries, especially in a commercial centre like Hong Kong. The Hong Kong supplement to this important work provides an essential and uniquely tailored reference work for local practitioners, and for those preparing for their notarial examinations. It introduces the much anticipated new framework for notarial practice that came into force under Part IV of the Legal Practitioners Ordinance (Cap 159), and is written by Nigel Ready, the respected author of Brooke's Notary.
