The Deedbox est un service de documents juridiques. Ce n'est **ni une étude notariale ni un cabinet d'avocats**. Nous préparons les documents et coordonnons la notarisation, l'enregistrement, l'attestation et la légalisation auprès des parties licenciées et des autorités compétentes. L'enregistrement des testaments est effectué par l'autorité compétente — le DIFC Courts Wills Service, l'Abu Dhabi Judicial Department, les tribunaux de Dubaï ou le notaire ; nous préparons et coordonnons, nous n'enregistrons pas. Préparer ou payer un document ne signifie pas qu'il a été notarié, enregistré ou accepté par une autorité — ce sont des étapes distinctes, et nous vous montrons précisément où en est votre dossier à chacune. Rien sur cette page ne constitue un conseil juridique.
