Notaries have played a significant role throughout history, serving as trusted professionals in legal matters. From ancient times to the present day, their presence can be seen in various forms and settings. In the medieval era, Saint Yves is depicted on a card symbolizing notarial duties. This highlights the importance as intermediaries between individuals and legal systems. Gibsons & Williams public notaries and stock brokers further exemplify the diverse roles that they have undertaken over time. Signs advertising services of notaries, attorneys, and solicitors demonstrate how these professionals were sought after for their expertise in legal matters. Their knowledge and skills were highly valued by individuals seeking guidance or representation. The Codex Justinian Institutiones Feodorum et Alia showcases miniature illustrations depicting scenes involving notaries. These illuminated manuscripts provide glimpses into the daily lives of these professionals during that period. In Sfax, Tunisia, Rue des Notaires (Street of Notaries) stands as a testament to the historical significance of this profession across different cultures and regions. It serves as a reminder of how deeply ingrained notarial practices are within societies worldwide. During the 15th century in Italy, merchant tribunals relied on the expertise to ensure fair trade practices. This demonstrates their crucial role in upholding justice within commercial transactions. Even within academia, at institutions like the University of Bologna, there were attorney law teachers who imparted knowledge about this esteemed profession to aspiring students. The privileges granted to royal schools further highlight how prestigious being a notary was considered during certain periods. From ancient manuscripts to bustling streets named after them, from courtrooms to classrooms –they have left an indelible mark on our society's legal fabric throughout history. Their dedication to upholding justice has made them indispensable figures whose influence continues today.
