When Do You Need Human Completion?
AI prepares your document — but certain legal formalities require a qualified human professional to complete.
Lawyer Review
For complex contracts, disputes, and any matter requiring professional legal judgment or representation.
Commissioner for Oaths
For sworn statements, affidavits, and statutory declarations used in local legal proceedings.
Certified True Copy
For certifying reproductions of official documents (passports, certificates) for institutional submissions.
Notary Public
For documents intended for use in foreign jurisdictions — internationally recognised certification.
Not every document needs notarization. Simple agreements, internal notices, and many contracts are legally valid without attestation. Our AI will guide you on what your specific document requires.
