Established in 1575, the firm has had its offices in the heart of Saint Germain des Prés, at 15 rue des Saints Pères, since 1875. Since 1866, six generations of Morel d’Arleux have passed on the notarial ethics tradition and have built up a strong climate of trust with their clients.

Today with four notaries in partnership and constituted as an SAS, our firms works with both private individuals and professionals throughout their lives and across their activities.

Our role as a publicly appointed officer and the rigorous demands of our profession are the guarantee of our independence. They guarantee that the documents signed through our intermediary will benefit from the highest degree of legal security.

The firm has always been built on its reputation for proximity with its clients through the benevolent attention devoted to each one of them, along with the necessary flexibility and legal skill.

In response to the challenges faced over recent years, we have reinvented ourselves to meet the demands for reactivity expressed by our clients.

Adapting our procedures, improving client reception and staff comfort, creating new activities and implementing innovative computer tools have all enabled us to better respond to the challenges currently facing our profession.
