A single point of contact for the French side

notaires.je connects Channel Islands professionals and their clients with a French notarial office in Saint-Malo. For any French matter — property, succession, business — your clients have a dependable point of contact, used to handling files in English and French.

Why a French notarial partner

French law approaches these matters quite differently from English or Island law — the central role of the notaire, forced heirship, the taxation of non-residents. Your clients are best served when their trusted adviser can call upon a dependable French counterpart, used to English-speaking clients.

How we work with you

1. You introduce the client or the question.
2. We clarify the French legal and tax picture, in plain language.
3. We coordinate the French notarial steps, through to the signed deed.
4. You keep the relationship; we handle the French side.
