French term or phrase: intervenir à l'acte
"- FAIRE dresser toutes attestations notariées pour constater la transmission des droits immobiliers dépendant de ces successions, à cet effet requérir tout notaire ; ***intervenir à l'acte*** pour y faire toutes déclarations, évaluations et affirmations nécessaires."

For the moment I have it as "to act as regards instruments", which I don't like.

I want to make sure that I'm not missing anything too.

agree  writeaway: imo this is safer than act. to act has too many implications/possible interpretations. /imo be present is safe.

  -> Yes - even "being a party" is a bit strong. "Taking part" is another possibility

intervenir à l\\\'acte
join in the deed (IrE/BrE: of assent)


Explanation:
Join in rather than accede to, whilst become a party to a deed is similar.

Assent is a probate conveyance and, in E&W, used to attract 50p stamp duty.


Example sentence(s):
  • A deed of assent is an aspect of probate law necessary to transfer a property from the name of a deceased person to the intended heir.
