only solicitors, judges etc it does tell you on the list.

the solicitor must stamp their address etc on to the copy and certify it is a true copy of the original

each must be done separately, so it can work out quite pricey.

I took mine to a solicitor who signed the lot as a job lot and didn't charge much. I then went back a couple of times and he was really reasonable (bottle of wine second time) If I remember correctly he put the company stamp on the document and and wrote something to the effect "I certify this is a true copy of the original" he knew what to do - obviously. Probably best to go to a small solicitor's office and just negotiate the rate ie £25 for the lot (or whatever). Teachers and the like can't do certify for this purpose. In Oz Justice of the Peace do it in libraries (as I saw) and again charge per document. To be on the safe side I would go with a solicitor, over here, as if things are not 100% correct when you send them off they will be returned and thus time will be wasted. Oh yeah - be prepared to start spending on the process now - at least it shows you are serious.
