If the Notary makes a technical error or is proven to have violated the Notary Position Act, from various sanctions depending on what mistakes were made by the Notary. If the Notary is asked by the client to provide the necessary information or advice related to the process of making the deed, if the information or advice given by the Notary is wrong or inappropriate and causes the client's loss, the Notary must be responsible as long as the information provided by the client is also true or not a lie.
