Includes-
Dentist
Nurse
Optometrist
Pharmacist
Psycologist
Vet

there are loads more, but I couldn't copy the web address, worth a look though, could be cheaper than paying a solicitor, you could time it with your next dental appointment. After he has inflicted pain :ohmy: I'm sure he would sign anything to make you feel better.

Hi Shona,

Just to say that we recently lodged all of our paperwork - and our agent gave us the great advice that if you stick with going to see a Justice of the peace it shouldnt cost anything as this is part of their duties. Right enough, this was the case and we got it signed no problems and free of charge!! Always a bonus.

We got a list of names and numbers by ringing our local council and we then phoned one up and he happened to be holding a surgery that night and was happy to oblige!

Hope this helps
Michelle

Aswell as signing stat dec he also certified all our copies of birth certs, passports, Stuart's qualifications etc he was stamping and signing for ages.
JP advised that this is a service they provide free of charge.
So go for that - won't you a penny. Good luck xx
