Client Identification; Registration & Terms of Engagement

In common with other commercial law firms, we must comply with the Money Laundering Regulations 2003. This is part of the government’s drive against money laundering and terrorism. The regulations require us to obtain satisfactory evidence of identity for substantially all new clients and those in respect of whom there has been a break in the relationship. We will be unable to start work for you until this evidence is obtained. By instructing us, you shall be deemed to have accepted our terms of business, from time to time applicable, which shall apply to the exclusion of any standard terms of purchase or any other terms which you may propose or supply subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Courts of Northern Ireland. There shall be no variation of these terms without the prior written agreement of the Principal of the practice.
