Fraser Brown solicitor becomes notary public
A corporate law solicitor at Nottingham-based Fraser Brown Solicitors has become the only female notary public practising in the city.
Diana Syziu’s role primarily involves preparing, witnessing and certifying deeds for use in the Commonwealth and civil law jurisdictions.
Syziu’s appointment makes her one of only four notaries public practising in Nottingham city centre and just 900 in England and Wales.
She said: “I am extremely pleased to have reached this milestone in my career. Very few people get the chance to become a notary in addition to being a qualified solicitor so I am particularly proud of the achievement and what it means.
“Being a notary public will allow me to build on my existing knowledge as a lawyer and provide an extra level of service to clients. Any transactions with a foreign element, for example buying property abroad require the services of a notary public.”
