Our service as notaries in Cologne
In our notary’s office in Cologne we offer you notarizations, certifications, other services in all areas relevant to notarial law as well as expert advice. In contrast to a lawyer, a notary must guarantee the impartial performance of his office. This means that we as notaries provide you with unbiased and neutral advice. Notaries are independent holders of a public office; they carry out certain tasks in the area of the so-called preventive administration of justice. Our task is to shape legal relationships and to safeguard the interests of all parties with the necessary neutrality.
Private individuals as well as companies, corporations or public authorities are welcome at our notary’s office in Cologne. If you wish, and if there is a factual reason, the notaries will also take care of out-of-town appointments. Simply contact us if you would like to make an appointment in Cologne.
We look forward to welcoming you as a client.

The following is a selection of services for which you can call on us, the notaries Dr. Stefan Heinze & notary administrators Dr. Stallknecht in Cologne

Real estate law, land register law & financing
For particularly important legal matters such as the purchase of a house, the law requires that a notary be called in as a competent advisor for notarial certification. In the field of real estate law/land register law, we notarize, among other things, the purchase or sale of houses, condominiums or undeveloped land. You can also make use of our services in connection with gifts, land charges, mortgages or other land register rights (such as usufruct). We are happy to advise you on real estate law and land register law.
Hereditary rights
We, your civil law notaries in Cologne, advise you on the drafting of a will. Many questions and problems can arise in this process (such as: Company succession; exclusion of unwanted relatives from the succession; protection after death, to name but a few examples). We can help you to draft inheritance law rules or succession agreements. We are also responsible for the notarisation of applications for certificates of inheritance; if you wish to refuse an inheritance, we are also your contact partner.
Priority power of attorney & living will
Even in the event of an accident or an unforeseeable illness, there are legal questions to be clarified. Who can make decisions on my behalf in the event of legal incapacity? Who decides what medical treatment I receive? Your notary public in Cologne will assist you on request with the preparation of a power of attorney and a living will.
Family law
Nobody wants a divorce; nevertheless many marriages get divorced. A precautionary notarial marriage contract creates legal and planning security; an agreement on the consequences of divorce can avoid a proliferating and expensive dispute. Among other things, the matrimonial property regime, pension rights and post-marital maintenance are to be regulated.
Corporate and company law
We will assist you in all areas of company law where the law provides for the involvement of a notary. This includes, for example, the establishment of companies (GmbH, UG (haftungsbeschränkt), GmbH & Co. KG, AG), the taking of minutes of shareholders’ meetings, the transfer of company shares, conversions and the structuring of your corporate succession.
