Abstract

The research aims to analyze the impact of digitizing electronic public deeds on legal security within Peruvian notaries. It explores how digital technology enhances the authenticity of legal documents, protecting citizens' interests. Utilizing a qualitative approach with a phenomenological design, the study gathers insights from six participants, including clients and lawyers, through interviews. This method allows a comprehensive understanding of their perceptions and experiences. Findings indicate that digitization significantly contributes to legal certainty by streamlining notarial processes, cutting costs, and bolstering document authenticity. The study proposes the establishment of an inspection commission to oversee legal security in notarial procedures and encourage digital system adoption in notaries' offices. This digitization is socially beneficial, offering citizens quicker and more secure access to legal documents. The research is original in its examination of electronic public deeds' digitization in a specific Peruvian context, emphasizing the technology's potential to enhance efficiency and document authenticity in the notarial sector.
