FAQs

Frequently asked questions

Unsure about how we work? We have gathered the most common questions for your convenience.

Yes, an Authority to Act Form is legally binding once it has been signed by the relevant parties. It provides formal confirmation that the nominated representative is authorised to act on your behalf in relation to the specific matter set out in the form. This written authority is often required by third parties, such as the Intellectual Property Office, ASIC, HMRC, or Companies House, before they allow someone other than the named individual or entity to take action or access information.

The form also helps protect all parties by clearly recording who is authorised to act and the extent of that authority. It can help avoid misunderstandings, support accountability, and provide a clear basis for interactions or decisions made on your behalf.

We’ll draft an Authority to Act Form tailored to your requirements. This package includes:

  • Drafting an Authority to Act Form in line with your requirements
  • Phone consultations of up to 60 minutes with a Sprintlaw lawyer, who will take your instructions, advise you on the legal issues you need to know, and answer your questions about the agreement
  • 1 complimentary amendment to the final draft we provide, as long as you request the amendment within 10 business days of delivery

Working with us is simple. Start by submitting an enquiry through our website using the form at the top of this page or on our Get Started page. A legal project manager will review your enquiry within 1 business day and get in touch to understand your needs. They’ll then send you a fixed-fee quote setting out the costs, scope and timing. If you’re happy to proceed, you can accept and sign our engagement letter online.

Once that’s done, we’ll connect you with an expert lawyer who will complete your project by email, phone or video call, usually within 5 business days. If you’re not looking for help with a specific matter, you can also explore our platform, which offers free templates, tools to help set up your business, and a free tier to get started.
