Purpose: This research aims to analyze the juridical aspects related to the responsibility of notaries in providing social services in line with the duties and functions of their position.
Theoretical Framework: Notaries have an important role in carrying out various legal transactions involving parties who have various legal interests. Apart from its main task as the party who issues authentic deeds, notaries are also expected to contribute to social services in society.
Methods: This research was conducted using normative legal research methods which involve analysis of laws and regulations governing notaries, professional responsibilities and social services.
Results: Research results show that notaries in Indonesia have an important role in providing public services and ensuring legal certainty. They not only make official deeds, but also help the community with social services, especially for the less fortunate. Although this task is very meaningful, notaries also have legal responsibilities and risks. They must be careful not to make mistakes in the deed, because they could be held liable either civilly, administratively or criminally.
Conclusions: However, notaries also have room to provide free services as a form of social responsibility. In carrying out their duties, notaries must follow legal and ethical rules in order to remain a pillar of public trust in legal matters.
