The sue may be launched by virtue of Law No. 30 of the year 2004 concerning the Function of the Notary Public. In addition, insurancecan also provide protection to the client of the Notary Public for possible loss caused by the accepted deed as the affidavit (written proof) which is not in accordance with the document as it should be because the power of giving proof of the deed has been degraded to become only as an underhanded deed or become even a lawfully failed deed. The protection of the insurance towards the NotaryPublic profession is the shifting part of the possible risks raised by the client of the Notary Public in the form of loss compensation plus the interest of the loss.
