Melissa for Document Preparation

Melissa Di Nardo is an international documentation specialist with deep expertise in U.S. and Canadian vital records, background checks, apostilles, and embassy legalizations. Born into a family of Canadian lawyers, she began working in the legal world as a teenager, gaining early exposure to structure and compliance. In her twenties, Melissa spent years living abroad as a photojournalist, navigating the world as an expat before eventually obtaining her Italian citizenship by descent, making her a dual passport holder with personal experience in cross-border legal processes. Now a mom of three, she may have traded flights for family life—but she continues to travel through the stories of the expats and professionals she supports.

Melissa is the founder of Legalize That Doc, a full-service document concierge helping expats, retirees, and immigration professionals procure, authenticate, apostille, and legalize U.S. and Canadian documents for international use. Her team guides clients through the complex process of securing documents like birth and marriage certificates, FBI or RCMP background checks, and Social Security or pension verification letters—ensuring everything is accepted in their destination country. Legalize That Doc is known for its highly personalized approach, crafting a unique plan for each individual or family based on their specific timeline and immigration requirements. The company works closely with both individuals and legal teams to prevent delays and deliver peace of mind.

If you're planning a move abroad, creating a document plan can make all the difference. Knowing which documents to start on first, and which ones take longer to process, is key to avoiding delays or having to do documents twice. Schedule your initial consultation with Melissa today.
