Meet Your Notary

Faye Thorman

Your York-based Notary for your international needs

I’m Faye Thorman, the founder of The Yorkshire Notary.  I’m a qualified and regulated Notary Public, based in York, and authorised to practise across England and Wales.  My practice is regulated through the Faculty Office of the Archbishop of Canterbury, and I’m a member of the Notaries Society.

I have over twenty years’ experience in the legal sector; I qualified as a solicitor in 2006 and practised in private client work for sixteen years before deciding to take the plunge as a full-time Notary Public.  I’m now 100% focused on notarial work, which means I’m available when and where you need me.

My aim is to provide accessible, responsive, and user-friendly notarial and legalisation services, combining the rigour of one of the world’s oldest legal professions with a modern, approachable style of client care. 

Above all, I’m a people person; it’s the main reason I enjoy what I do.  I work with a range of clients with a variety of needs, from individuals dealing with personal affairs abroad to businesses navigating international transactions.  Whether you’re experienced in dealing with legal documents, or it’s all completely new, I’ll guide you every step of the way, with flexibility, transparency, and professionalism.  Whatever the reason for your notarisation, I provide clear guidance, a quick turnaround, and peace of mind.
