The Chief Justice (CJ), Justice Gertrude Araba Esaaba Sackey Torkornoo, has emphasised the importance of notarial practice in Ghana's legal system, describing it as a critical aspect of ensuring integrity in legal documentation.

She made these remarks at the launch of the book "Notarial Practice in Ghana: Law, Cases, and Materials," which was authored by Daniel Yaw Abaidoo in Accra Thursday.

In an address read on her behalf, she commended the author for his dedication to producing a com­prehensive legal resource that will serve as a valuable reference for legal practitioners, researchers, and judicial officers.

She noted that while the role of notaries was often overlooked, it re­mained fundamental in safeguarding the authenticity of documents used in legal and commercial transac­tions.
