I have a potential guarantor who is very busy professional and would find it difficult in the circumstances to meet for an ID check in person as he does not live locally. Is there a way, by using a local solicitor or some-such, which could verify the ID more convniently for the guarantor.

Yes. Any practising solicitor in UK should be able to certify copies as true copies of originals (passport, driving licence, etc.)Originally posted by Bel View Post
In non-UK jurisdictions, the copies should be notarised.JEFFREY SHAW, solicitor [and Topic Expert], Nether Edge Law*

Jeffrey(or others) if you are still following this thread,
If you were in my position, would you trust that the deed of Guarantee is signed and witnessed not in your presence? Would it be better to insist that a solicitor witnesses it?All posts in good faith, but do not rely on them

Yes, but insist that solicitor verifies identity of signatory (i.e. not "M. Mouse" or "A. Nonymous").JEFFREY SHAW, solicitor [and Topic Expert], Nether Edge Law*

Jeffrey, I so appreciate your help.
Had the guarantor been more local; is it acceptable for the agent to witness the deed of G and the ast being signed, or does it have to be more a more independant person?All posts in good faith, but do not rely on them
