JUSTICE OF THE PEACE SERVICE

The Pines Elanora provides a Justice of the Peace (JP) service six days a week for our local community.

Located just down the mall near Woolworths, our qualified JPs are available Monday to Saturday from 10am-1pm.

JPs are trained to witness and certify your routine legal documents (for example wills, affidavits, statutory declarations, passport applications etc.)

All of our JPs are volunteers who provide their time to assist the public, this is a FREE community service and no appointment is required.

A JP in Queensland can;

• issue search warrants
• issue arrest warrants
• grant bail
• witness documents
• witness statutory declarations
• witness affidavits
• witness and administer oaths and affirmations
• certify a true copy of an original document
• certify a person’s identity.
