Another important element: the protection of your notarial mandate will always be ensured since the notary must keep the original in a safe place, as required by law. You can therefore be sure that this document will not be lost, modified or destroyed. The notary will also give you a copy that is true to the original.

Finally, the existence of your mandate is recorded in the Register of Mandates of the Chambre des notaires. In the event of your incapacity, any person who has an interest in protecting you will be able to verify whether you have made a notarial mandate by submitting a search request to the Chambre des notaires. Please note that this register only lists the existence of notarial mandates in Quebec and does not contain copies of the mandates.

Finally, the notary also has a duty to advise and will make uk numbers for whatsapp recommendations that take into account your personal situation. For example, if you live in a common-law relationship with your spouse, he may suggest adding special clauses to your mandate in order to protect your partner, because the law does not recognize any maintenance obligation between you.

A notary will not only be able to inform you about the different elements to include in your mandate, but also answer your questions, explain the consequences of your choices and clearly formulate your wishes in writing.

Here are some things you should think about before the meeting:

Who do you want to appoint to make decisions on your behalf and will they be willing to take on these responsibilities?
Who could replace them if necessary?
What powers will these people have? To whom and how often will they be accountable for their decisions?
What are your guidelines for the care you wish to receive?
What are your guidelines regarding the management of your property and finances?
