Affidavits & Statutory Declarations

Affidavits and statutory declarations are formal legal documents used to affirm facts under oath or solemn declaration. They are widely used in legal proceedings, property transactions, immigration, government applications, and official records in Trinidad and Tobago. These documents are often essential where no other written proof exists or where a personal statement is required by law or policy.

We provide drafting and legal guidance to ensure your affidavit or declaration meets all legal requirements. Whether you need a sworn statement for court, an official name change, or a correction to your civil status documents, we ensure your declarations are clear, properly executed, and legally sound.
