WHY NOTARIZATION MATTERS
Ever been asked to submit a “notarized document”? Here’s why:

1. A Notarized Document Adds Legal Weight: It is recognized by courts, banks, and government agencies and helps prove that the document is authentic and voluntarily signed.

2. A Notarized Document Prevents Fraud: The notary checks your identity and ensures no one is being forced to sign. This protects all parties involved.

3. A Notarized Document is Required for Many Transactions: Affidavits, deeds of sale, special powers of attorney, waivers, and contracts often must be notarized to be accepted.

4. A Notarized Document Saves You from Hassles: A properly notarized document helps avoid disputes, delays, or rejections when submitting paperwork.

“Hindi porket may pirma, legal na. Pa-notaryo muna bago magka-aberya!"

5 TIPS BEFORE BUYING REAL ESTATE PROPERTY:

1. VERIFY THE LAND TITLE. Avoid scams! Get a Certified True Copy from the Registry of Deeds to confirm legitimate ownership.

2. CHECK FOR OUTSTANDING LIABILITY. Ensure the property has no mortgages, unpaid taxes, or legal disputes before you buy.

3. INSPECT THE PROPERTY FOR ISSUES. Hidden problems like right-of-way disputes, illegal structures, or boundary conflicts can lead to legal trouble.

4. KNOW THE PROPERTY'S LEGAL USE. Not all land is for residential or commercial use! Verify zoning laws to avoid costly mistakes.

5. CONSULT A LAWYER FOR DUE DILIGENCE. A legal expert can review contracts, verify documents, and protect your rights before you commit.

The Supreme Court has ruled that buyers of defective brand-new motor vehicles may choose to enforce their rights under any available law.

The Supreme Court’s Second Division, in a Decision written by Associate Justice Antonio Kho, Jr., ruled that Republic Act No. 10642 or the Philippine Lemon Law (Lemon Law), which applies to brand-new vehicles, is not an exclusive remedy.

The Lemon Law allows the manufacturer, distributor or dealer at least four separate repair attempts before replacing the defective vehicle. On the other hand, the Consumer Act, which applies to durable and non-durable consumer products in general, gives the supplier 30 days to correct the defective product.

The Court ruled there is nothing that prevents a consumer from availing of the remedies under the Consumer Act or any other law if the subject of the complaint is a brand-new vehicle.

The Lemon Law is an alternative remedy granted to the consumer who is free to choose to enforce their rights under any applicable law.
