Client KYC & Onboarding

Spanish AML and client-identification requirements mean we may need to confirm who we are acting for, the purpose of the matter and the origin of relevant funds before we can consider a professional engagement. Complete this intake at your own pace; after you request a secure handoff, a lawyer will review the information and advise what is needed next.

Secure transfer first

Do not send identity documents by ordinary email. Please ask us to confirm a secure transfer method before sending any ID or supporting documents.

What happens after submission

This intake is a starting point for lawyer review. It does not confirm acceptance, create a lawyer-client relationship or provide automated clearance. We may ask follow-up questions and request relevant documents through a secure channel.

Frequently asked questions

Why do you ask for this information?
Law firms may need to understand a client’s identity, the matter and relevant source-of-funds information before deciding whether and how to proceed.

Should I send documents now?
No. Do not email original identity documents, bank passwords or online-banking credentials. Once appropriate, we will provide or confirm a secure method for document transfer.

Does submitting the intake mean I have been accepted?
No. A lawyer must review the information. Submission does not create a lawyer-client relationship, confirm acceptance or replace legal advice.
