Unnotarized Deed Binding Effects

Summary

An unnotarized deed of assignment in the Philippines is binding between the parties but lacks the status of a public document, meaning it cannot be registered with the Register of Deeds and may not be admissible in court without further proof. To ensure enforceability, the assignee should have the deed notarized, register it, and gather additional evidence to support its validity if challenged.
