Affidavits

An affidavit is a written, sworn statement of fact voluntarily made by an affiant or deponent under an oath or affirmation administered by a person authorized to do so by law. Such statement is witnessed as to the authenticity of the affiant’s or deponent’s signature by a taker of oaths, such as a Commissioner of Oaths.

Services we provide

Certification of Documents

A certified document is a document that has been signed by a professional or someone of 'good standing' to confirm that it is a 'true copy' of an original document. When applying for a bank account or mortgage you may be asked to provide documents that are certified copies of the original.

Change of Name Deed

To change your name you require a Deed Poll. A Deed Poll is a legal document that proves a change of name. At Wayling Quarters we can draft a change of name deed and/or witness signatures of the deponent on the change of name deed.

 Power of Attorney

A lasting power of attorney (LPA) is a legal document that lets you (the ‘donor’) appoint one or more people (known as ‘attorneys’) to help you make decisions or make decisions on your behalf.

There are two types:

1) health and welfare

2) property and financial affairs.

You can choose to make one or both types.

Statutory Declaration

A Statutory Declaration is a written statement of fact that is signed in the presence of an authorised person such as a Commissioner for Oaths. It is similar to a statement made under oath, however, it is not sworn. Statutory declarations are commonly used to allow a person to affirm something to be true for the purposes of satisfying some legal requirement or regulation when no other evidence is available.

   Making a Trust

A trust is a way of managing assets (money, investments, land or buildings) for people. There are different types of trusts and they are taxed differently. Trusts involve: 1) the ‘settlor’ - the person who puts assets into a trust 2) the ‘trustee’ - the person who manages the trust 3) the ‘beneficiary’ - the person who benefits from the trust. Trusts are set up for a number of reasons, including but not limited to control and protection of family assets and when someone’s too young to handle their affairs.
