History

[edit]

The origins of the Chamber dates back to September 2, 1573, when the decree for the operation of the Brotherhood of the Four Evangelists was issued in Spain. On June 19, 1792, the Royal Chamber of Notaries of Mexico was founded through the Royal Decree of Aranjuez issued by King Charles IV of Spain. Since its founding, it has operated continuously for over 200 years, making the Chamber of Mexico City the oldest in America.[1]

[edit]

Article 12 of Notarial Law for Mexico City[2] states that every persons has the right to access to professional notarial services. Therefore, the notary has to provide their professional services when it is required by competent authorities, private individuals or in compliance of judicial resolutions. Also, all notaries have to participate in the legal aid programs required by public policy or law.

In compliance of these provisions, the Chamber provides free legal counseling regarding property issues and the establishment of companies, among other subjects, urgent notarial attention, the "Month of the Will"[3], where people can issue their wills at reduced prices and collaboration in various social programs created by diverse government authorities[4][5].
