Date: Tuesday, May 27, 2025

Time: 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM

Location: Online (link will be provided separately after registration)

Description:

As global business, international finance, and cross-border work continues to grow, law firms and their clients are more often faced with the challenges of having documents that are executed or issued in one jurisdiction being legally recognized in another. Understanding how to correctly identify the specific processes and steps required to correctly Apostille, Authenticate, or Legalize a document is crucial to ensuring that documents are legally recognized globally. Moreover, as new jurisdictions accede to the Apostille Convention, the requirements are ever changing. In this session we will familiarize you with these concepts and processes and cover the most recent updates to jurisdictions that recognize Apostilles.
