Common Pitfalls & How to Avoid Them

Originals out of validity window — many destinations require documents issued within 3-6 months. Confirm with the destination authority first.
Name mismatch between document and passport — embassies reject these. Correct it at the district office before translating.
Using a translator without an official seal — MFA and embassies will not accept it; you'll restart the chain.
Skipping MFA legalization before the embassy step — wastes multiple trips and weeks of time.

Cross-service questions, answered by the NYC Legal team

405. Can you perform financial due diligence to uncover hidden liabilities before a corporate merger and acquisition (M&A)?

Talk to the NYC Legal team on any business day — you get a working plan, not a generic price list.

519. Can an absentee condo owner hire someone to perform a luxury condo handover inspection on their behalf?
