Legal Documentation

This is where most of our files begin, because everything done in Syria on behalf of someone living abroad starts with a document: a power of attorney, a certified copy, or an official record obtained from the authorities.

What we handle

• Working out the wording your specific case needs, and the authentication steps that apply where you live.
• Obtaining official documents and certified copies from the relevant authorities.
• Correcting details in official registers and records.
• Authenticating and registering contracts where that is required.
• Following the matter through the relevant office until it is completed.

The mistake we see most often

A power of attorney worded too generally does not cover the act required, so it is refused when used and its holder goes back to the consulate weeks later. That is why we settle the wording only once we know exactly what it is for — selling one particular property, pursuing one particular case, registering a company — rather than a "general" authority assumed to cover everything.

What we need to start

What the document or power of attorney is for, your country of residence, the names of the parties as they appear on official documents, and any earlier document on the same subject.
