Ginkgo Advisory provides solicitor-led UK document, corporate and cross-border legal support for individuals, families, businesses, overseas clients and professional advisers.
Our work includes UK apostille, solicitor certification, embassy and consular legalisation, certified true copies, academic document verification, corporate records, company secretarial legal services and selected legal support for matters involving documents used overseas.
We are not a routine stamp-forwarding service. Before submitting a document, we consider the document type, issuing authority, destination country, receiving institution and intended use. This allows us to identify the appropriate route before certification, apostille or legalisation is arranged.
Solicitor-Led Process
Our document certification and legal support work is assisted by an England and Wales practising solicitor.
The solicitor is regulated by the Solicitors Regulation Authority (SRA) and registered with the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FCDO) for apostille-related work.
This means we can assist where a matter requires more than administrative handling, including solicitor certification, verification, legal review, procedural judgment and careful preparation of supporting documents.
What We Assist With
We assist with personal, academic, corporate and legal documents, including:
- ACRO police certificates
- Birth, marriage, death and adoption certificates
- Degree certificates, transcripts and academic records
- Certified true copies of passports and identity documents
- Company records and Companies House documents
- Confirmation statements, director and PSC updates and statutory records
- Statutory declarations and powers of attorney
- Solicitor-certified copies and supporting letters
- Documents for overseas authorities, universities, employers, banks, courts, embassies and consulates
Corporate and Legal Support
In addition to apostille and legalisation work, Ginkgo Advisory assists with company secretarial, governance and corporate administration matters for UK companies, LLPs and corporate groups.
This may include support with:
- Companies House filings
- Registered office matters
- Director and PSC records
- Statutory registers
- Corporate document preparation
- Organisation of company records for overseas, banking, transactional or compliance purposes
Where a matter requires legal judgment, we assist within the scope of our solicitor-led services or identify the appropriate route before work begins.
Non-Standard Document Matters
Many cross-border document matters do not fit a standard checklist.
The correct process may depend on:
- The document type
- The country where the document will be used
- The receiving authority
- The wording required
- Whether the document must first be verified, certified, translated, notarised, apostilled or legalised by an embassy
For that reason, Ginkgo Advisory is particularly suited to matters where the process requires judgment, sequencing and careful handling rather than routine submission alone.
Our Approach
We help clients identify the appropriate route for each document before work begins.
Where appropriate, we arrange:
- Solicitor certification
- FCDO apostille
- Embassy or consular legalisation
- Document preparation
- Company record support
- Secure return of completed documents
Our focus is accuracy, correct procedure, careful document handling and professional accountability.

UK ACRO Certificate Apostille
Highly recommend! I desperately needed some documents with an apostille asap and had no idea how to go about doing either. Ginkgo Advisory gave me instructions on how to do the process myself and provided me with two options for utilizing their services. I did the first part on my own and they completed the apostille process for me. Exceptional service, excellent communication, and quick turn around time.

Apostille documents
I am super grateful for having found them. They helped me get my apostille and got my documents sent back to me by international post. I wasn’t sure about whose services I could trust at first because I had no way to meet them in person. But Gingko Advisory’s team were quick and understanding. All the process was carried out clearly and in a professional manner. Thank you.

Highly Recommend for International Document Services!
I’m based in New Jersey (USA) and needed help obtaining a certified copy of a birth certificate from London, getting it apostilled, and then mailed to The Bahamas. It felt like a complicated international process — but Ginkgo Advisory made it completely stress-free.
From my first email with them, through final delivery, they were responsive, professional, and incredibly efficient. They handled everything seamlessly and kept me updated every step of the way, which gave me complete peace of mind.
The document arrived in The Bahamas, without any issues, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. I highly recommend Ginkgo Advisory for reliable, international document services!

Clear, professional and reliable service
I had a very positive experience with Ginkgo Advisory and would happily recommend them.
They were professional, responsive, and very easy to work with. What really stood out was that even at an early stage—before I had formally engaged the firm—they were already willing to join discussions, help us think through the process, and clarify requirements with the overseas party. This was extremely helpful, as the other side was not very clear about what documents were needed or in what format.
They helped bring structure and clarity to what could otherwise have been a confusing situation. Once everything was confirmed, the notarisation and Apostille work was handled efficiently and without unnecessary back-and-forth. Communication throughout was clear and timely, which made the whole process much less stressful.
Overall, a reliable, well-organised, and trustworthy service. I would definitely work with Ginkgo Advisory again.

I cannot recommend this company highly enough. They turned what could have been an extremely stressful situation into a smooth process. They guided me through every step of the way and ensured all documents were delivered well before the deadline. They went above and beyond, offering thoughtful advice and generous support. They are truly worth their weight in gold.
