A Notary Public lawyer is challenging the default retirement age in the Court of Appeal after he was made to stop work at 65.  The Notary Public, now aged 68, believes that he still has a great deal to offer the solicitor’s profession and claims he was discriminated against on the grounds of age. Whilst, Mr Sheldon continues to works as a Notary he was forced to stop work at 65 according to the terms of his partnership agreement. It is not unusual for retiring solicitors to continue to operate an independent practice as a Notary Public.

For further details of this Notary Public’s claim and to view a video clip of this Notary Public please refer to the BBC News Article http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/kent/8150266.stm

London Notary, Matthew Pryke  believes that the legal challenge raises “important questions of legal policy and principle for all businesses which have the potential to affect all employees. Whilst the case will be viewed primarily as an important precendent for age discrimination laws it is also a key decision for businesses more generally. As a fellow Notary Public I wish Mr Sheldon the best of luck with his legal case.”

The concept of a Commissioner for Oaths, or what is sometimes described as a Commissioner of Oaths, is often misunderstood.  In English law, the following professions can be administer Oaths

• Notary Public
• London Notary
  
• Solicitor
• Barrister
• Legal Executive
• Licensed Conveyancer

A London Notary such as Matthew Pryke is also a Commissioner for Oaths and can therefore deal with any requirements for a Commissioner for Oaths that may be encountered.  A meeting with a London Notary should take no longer than 15 to 20 minutes and the large majority of matters should be dealt with on the same day.  The fee charged by the London Notary practice may vary so it is worth shoping around.  Also remember to ask whether the London Notary will charge VAT on the fees as this will effect the price you pay.  London Notary, Matthew Pryke does not charge VAT on his professional fees which he explains, “offers many of my notary clients a very useful saving.”
