Laurent Bermen (fl. 1647–1649) was a notary at Quebec. Historically, the first clerk of the court, Nicolas, to sign an act in New France did so in 1621. Bermen, in drafting acts during his tenure, referred to himself as the royal notary. This was not within his rights to do so since that type of appointment could only be made by the king or his representative. Nevertheless, he created 39 notarial acts in his time in the New World. Four more notaries who followed Bermen in the post acted on his precedent and used the title. They were: Claude Lecoustre (1647–1648), Guillaume Audouart (1649–1663), Jean Durand (1653–1654) and Louis Rouer de Villeray (1653–1657). None legally held the title.

Bermen would have fallen under the authority of the Company of One Hundred Associates (Compagnie des Cent-Associés) in regards to his work as a notary. It would seem that they had some ability to shape the laws of this new colony. (en)
  • Laurent Bermen est un notaire à Québec du XVIIe siècle. Il fut notaire royal de 1647 à 1649. Il est le premier greffier de la Cour à avoir signé un acte en Nouvelle-France en 1621. Bermen, dans la rédaction des actes au cours de son mandat, se dénommait lui-même comme le notaire royal. Ce n'était pas dans son droit de le faire puisque ce type de nomination ne pouvait être faite par le roi ou son représentant. Néanmoins, il a créé 39 actes notariés durant son séjour dans le nouveau monde. Quatre notaires de plus qui ont suivi Bermen à son poste et ont agi comme leur prédécesseur et ont utilisé son titre mais aucun détenait légalement le titre : * Claude Lecoustre (1647–1648) * Guillaume Audouart (1649–1663) * Jean Durand (1653) * Louis Rouer de Villeray (1653–1657) Bermen serait tombé sous l'autorité de la compagnie des cent-associés en ce qui concerne son travail en tant que notaire. Il semblerait qu'ils avaient une capacité de façonner les lois de cette nouvelle colonie. (fr)
