To me (to me; to this notary public)
It should be referring to a notary public that certifies the document. It is used as a pronoun and means "me" or "myself." Public officials or some sort of professionals sometimes refer to themselves as "本職." It could be written as "本公証人に対し" in this case.
For your reference, "in my very presence" will correspond to "本職の面前で." See the second example, "本職の面前にて."

regarding this duty
What is the context? I would translate this as "relating to / regarding this duty / profession / role" depending on the context.

to me
It could mean "duty" like David says, but it more often refers to the writer him/herself. You have to see it from the context or show it to us.
