A notarial signature verification is much more robust than a standard signature verification or a lawyer verification. A notarial signature verification means that it is almost impossible to contradict the signature and make future claims (in court or anywhere) about the signature procedure or its validity.
Under Israeli law, there are cases where the signature verification must be notarized. For example, a power of attorney for a real estate transaction without a lawyer, the creation of a trust, and almost any paperwork intended for use outside of Israel.
Each notarized document has a serial number and a date, which cannot be forged, so it is important to use a notarized signature wherever there may be a question in the future about the date of signing of the document, for example example vis-à-vis the tax authority. For this reason, we recommend that any asset document held in a receiver or trust (for example, holding shares of one company for another) be notarized.
