“Harvard Law Journal”
I’ve never read that journal, but I have read law review articles and thought well of them.
I was watching “The Crown” last night. Charles & Diana were getting a divorce. Perhaps the equivalent of European notaries should be used in legal matters.
“Civil law notaries, on the one hand, are independent and impartial public officeholders who have received a delegation of authority from the State to produce authentic acts which have evidentiary effect and which are enforceable, like court decisions. They are entrusted with ensuring freedom of consent, checking the identity of the parties and their legal capacity, so that the legitimate interests of all concerned parties are guaranteed by providing comprehensive legal advice and information. A signature by the notary confers authenticity to legal acts. As guardians of legal certainty, civil law notaries play an
essential role in avoiding subsequent judicial disputes, also reducing the workload and costs of the courts by exercising non-litigious legal competences. Therefore, they play a key role in the preventive administration of justice.”

Its called the Harvard Law Review and it is garbage. I had a bit of a chip on my shoulder working side by side with some Harvard Law grads until I subscribed for a year and read it. Mostly I had to teach my co workers the law they should have learned in school.
