Meet a notary

With CDAD 21

Proposed by Conseil Départemental d'Accès au Droit Updated on il y a 4 ans

The notary is a public officer, who intervenes in all areas of law: family, real estate, heritage, companies ...

He is appointed by the Ministry of Justice and acts on behalf of the state. As a legal specialist, the notary drafts "deeds" and contracts (such as a promise to sell an apartment, a marriage contract, etc.) and "authenticates" them. In other words, he gives them legal value.

With the County Council for access to the law (Conseil départemental d'accès au droit or CDAD), you can meet a notary free of charge at offices in Dijon and the region.

Why is it interesting?

Access to law concerns all people, with or without a home, young or old.

The legal access points are open to the public free of charge.

Legal access points are available throughout the Côte-d'Or (see interactive map at the bottom of the sheet).

A notary is "subject to professional secrecy", i.e. he cannot reveal what his clients tells him. Everything you can say during a consultation will therefore remain confidential (secret).

Consultations are carried out by professional notaries.
