The community often has difficulty understanding the legal terminology and procedures required for making notarial deeds, and does not understand the importance of notarial deeds in protecting their rights and providing legal certainty. To overcome these obstacles, several strategies can be taken. Strategies to improve legal understanding through counseling by notaries in villages, as well as improving clear and effective communication, are important steps to clarify complex legal concepts for the community.
