How much did you have to pay for your affidavit? Will I have to pay for the solicitors time aswell as the affidavit itself?
Thanks, Heidi

If you need a solicitor to draft it you will have to pay them, but usually the country have standard wordings you need. Then if you swear it in front of a solicitor its about£5.00 for each single document and £2.50 foe exhibits.

That seems expensive, have you asked them to draft it for you. Just to swear and affidavit should be £5 each plus £2.50 for each exhibit. I would ask around if I were you.

CommentAuthorKATG
my friend is a solicitor thats definately too much. She told me the above prices, you dont need an appointment in most solicitors, just turn up and ask the price and ask them to sign. £100 plus is if you need them to draft it or you need advice or a notary. Seems way over the odds to me. Just go in anywhere...

Ok, google has just cleared that one up for me!
Yes you do need an affidavit as it is also known as a statutory declaration. Doh!! I am such a nugget!
So after all that, they are the same thing & yes we do need one. Sorry lol x
