A.Hi,
It is recommended that you have at least two witnesses. The lawyer who is executing the deed cannot serve as a witness, as this would result in a conflict of interest.

A.Hi,
We recommend that you have at least two witnesses, but this is not mandatory. The lawyer who executed the deed cannot serve as the witness himself, as there is a clear vested interest.
