Julian Dorau's clients were to a large extent Jews living in the Free City of Krakow district (encompassing the towns Chrzanów, Trzebinia, Nowa Góra, Jaworzno, and Krzeszowice). The files are quite important because notary offices in the Free City of Krakow were scarce in 1815-1846. Only 1-8 notary offices were in existence.
The notary deeds were primarily receipts, obligations and real estate sale agreements.

- Archival history:
- The records of notary public Julian Dorau were initially stored in his office, and then in the archives of the notary chamber. They were taken over by the State Archives in Krakow after World War II.
- Administrative/biographical history:
- Julian Dorau, notary public, ran a notary office in Krakow at Grodzka St. in the years 1827-1830. His activities were based on the French notary act of 1803, introduced in the Duchy of Warsaw in 1810. The provisions of the French Commercial Code of 1807 were also used. The notary public had the status of a public official who drew up notarial documents, in particular wills, certified declarations of intent, creating excerpts and copies from books, he also took money and securities into deposit, prepared bills of exchange protests. He was often entrusted with keeping mortgage books. Notaries were required to have legal knowledge, completed an apprenticeship, passed an assessor exam, and pledged a bail when they took office. Notaries were not affiliated in a notary chamber. From 1826, they collected fees for their activities.
