Notaries

Fabian Ramser | Ulrike Schmitt

“Notarizing a document is not the end of a decision. It is the beginning of its effect.”

Planning · Protecting arrangements for individuals and families · Companies, shareholders, and management · Testators and heirs · Spouses and civil partners · Associations and foundations

Notarization formalizes decisions that are meant to endure – for years, often across generations. Property is transferred, a business is restructured, assets are passed on, and a marriage is governed by a contract. In this context, the legal form is not merely an afterthought – it is what ensures the decision’s long-term viability.

Comprehensive contracts, business formations and reorganizations, succession planning, lifetime asset transfers, marriage contracts, and divorce settlement agreements: Each of these scenarios has its own set of rules and its own risks. Agreements must be drafted in a way that prevents disputes rather than fueling them.

Notarized documents ensure your power to act with substantial legal certainty. We help shape contracts, structures, and transfers; provide safeguards where form and evidential value are critical; and support where agreements need to stand the test of time – often well beyond the notarization itself.
