London Notary Public practice M D Pryke Notary Public has become the latest notary practice to convert to a limited liability partnership (LLP), the London West End firm announced today.  The conversion to LLP status was backed via a members vote last month which allows this London Notary Public practice to adopt a modern corporate structure whilst retaining the same internal management, structures and quality standards.

London Notary Public Matthew Pryke commented, “Whilst our decision to convert to a LLP will have little or no effect on our clients, it enables our London notary practice to maintain a structure and transparency similar to that of a corporate entity which will enable us to better serve our notary clients and manage our London Notary Public practice in the future.”

A number of London Notary Public practices have converted to LLP status and it is predicted that many of the other London notaries are likely to follow suit in the near future.  For further details regarding M D Pryke Notary Public LLP please refer to the London Notary website at www.mdpryke-notary.com.
