To begin with

A document is the culmination of preparation. We help you from the first question to a conscious decision.

“By calmly repeating what we have heard, we make the content visible again without immediately adding a judgement.”

01

Your question and your situation

You explain why you want to arrange this now, who is involved and what you want to avoid. We also discuss what you do not yet know. You do not need to choose a deed before that conversation.

02

Documents and legal assessment

We review what already exists, what information is missing and what form the law requires. We distinguish your wishes from the facts that still need to be verified.

03

Agreeing on assignment and costs

We clarify which document we are preparing, which documents are required and what fee applies. Any additional assignment will be discussed first.

04

Draft and explanation

You will have the opportunity to read the draft and ask questions. We discuss the consequences for today, for a changed situation and, where relevant, for death or a relationship breakdown.

05

Signing and further completion

We guide the appropriate signing method. Depending on the document, registration, publication, safekeeping or execution instructions follow. We clarify which steps still lie with you or another party.

NotaCare, NotaHome and NotaLegal

Three departments within the same office, each with its own starting point. NotaCare assists with advice and planning. NotaHome guides real estate matters. NotaLegal records the chosen arrangements in deeds and agreements.

Your question may concern more than one department. We discuss which guidance is needed and which assignment you wish to give.

FROM READING TO PREPARATION

Already a first answer.

Do I need to know already which deed I need?

No. Start from what you want to arrange. An existing deed, a draft or your own description helps us ask the right questions. The explanation on this page gives you a first idea of the possibilities; the concrete elaboration follows from your situation.

What can I prepare now?

Gather the documents mentioned on this page for preparation. Also note what you want to keep, who is involved and which date is relevant. If you do not yet have everything, mention what is missing at your appointment.

Can I first have a draft discussed?

You can submit your question about a draft before proceeding. Indicate if there is a response deadline and provide the complete version, including attachments. We will coordinate with you on the control and guidance you require.
