Reg Registered Deed

Querist : Anonymous (Querist) 07 May 2011 This query is : Resolved
IN a registered Deed one of the witness is a lawyer who has signed and put rubber stamp giving name and Reg.No while other witness has signed giving name address and photo ID proof.

Is this (Witness requirement) legally OK in case of civil dispute. If not what needs be done to make registered deed legally valid.

Both the signatures of the Witnesses in the Registered Deed are completely valid for any situation.

If you have any doubt, what type of doubt you actually have about the legality of the witnesses?

The process of witnessing is not wrong in any way. As you have stated the deed as a registered deed, had there been any illegality, even the Registrar would have objected to admit the document while registering the deed.
