ARBOR LEGIS LTD
Effective date: 19 May 2026
1. About these Terms
1.1 These Terms of Service (“Terms“) govern your access to and use of the website at https://www.arborlegis.co.uk, including all of its sub-domains, pages, content, forms and functionality (together, the “Website“).
1.2 The Website is operated by ARBOR LEGIS LTD, a private limited company incorporated in England and Wales under company number 11634259, whose registered office is at 802 Sovereign Tower, 1 Emily Street, London, United Kingdom, E16 1XH (“Arbor Legis“, “we“, “us” or “our“).
1.3 In these Terms, “you” and “your” mean any person who accesses or uses the Website, whether browsing only or submitting information, and whether on their own behalf or on behalf of an organisation. If you act for an organisation, you confirm that you are authorised to bind it to these Terms.
1.4 By accessing or using the Website you confirm that you have read, understood and agree to be bound by these Terms and by any documents expressly referred to in them. If you do not agree, you must not use the Website.
1.5 These Terms govern use of the Website only. They do not govern the provision of any professional services by us, which are subject to a separate written engagement (see clause 4).
2. Eligibility and capacity
2.1 The Website is intended for businesses, professionals and persons aged 18 or over. By using the Website you confirm that you are at least 18 years old and have the legal capacity to enter into these Terms.
3. Changes to these Terms and to the Website
3.1 We may amend these Terms at any time by posting the revised version on the Website. The “Effective date” shows when the Terms were last changed. Your continued use of the Website after any change constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms. You should review these Terms periodically.
3.2 We may modify, suspend, withdraw, restrict or discontinue all or any part of the Website at any time, without notice and without liability to you. We do not warrant that the Website or its content will always be available, uninterrupted, timely, secure or error-free.
4. Nature of the content — information only, no advice, no reliance
4.1 The Website and its content are provided for general information purposes only and describe, in general terms, the categories of advisory services we may offer and our general approach.
4.2 Nothing on the Website constitutes, or is intended to constitute, legal, regulatory, compliance, tax, accounting, financial, investment or other professional advice, and nothing on it should be relied upon as such. The content is not a substitute for advice tailored to your circumstances, and you should obtain advice from an appropriately authorised or regulated professional where the matter requires it.
4.3 To the maximum extent permitted by law, we make no representation and give no warranty that any content is accurate, complete, current or fit for any purpose, and we accept no responsibility for any loss arising from reliance on it.
4.4 Any figures, statistics or descriptions of experience, consultations, projects or years of activity shown on the Website are indicative summaries only and do not constitute a representation, warranty or guarantee as to any outcome.
4.5 No communication or material made available through the Website (including via any contact, enquiry or “book a consultation” form) creates any client, advisory, fiduciary or other professional relationship between you and us. No such relationship arises unless and until it is established under clause 5.
5. Professional services are governed by a separate engagement
5.1 We provide professional advisory services only under, and subject to, a separate written engagement agreement, engagement letter and/or master services agreement between us and the relevant client (the “Engagement Terms“), together with satisfactory completion of our client acceptance and due diligence procedures (clause 6).
5.2 No engagement is created, and we accept no obligation to provide services or to act for you, by reason of (a) your use of the Website, (b) submission of any enquiry, consultation request or form, or (c) any preliminary or exploratory communication. An engagement arises only when Engagement Terms have been agreed and signed by both parties and any conditions in them have been satisfied.
5.3 In the event of any conflict between these Terms and the Engagement Terms in relation to the provision of services, the Engagement Terms prevail.
6. Regulatory status and scope
6.1 Arbor Legis provides business, corporate, compliance, structuring and accounting/tax advisory services. Unless we have expressly agreed otherwise in writing in the Engagement Terms:
(a) we are not a firm of solicitors and are not authorised or regulated by the Solicitors Regulation Authority; we do not carry on, and do not hold ourselves out as entitled to carry on, any reserved legal activity within the meaning of the Legal Services Act 2007 (including the conduct of litigation, exercise of rights of audience, reserved instrument activities, probate activities, notarial activities or the administration of oaths);
(b) we are not authorised or regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority; we do not provide investment, financial promotion or other regulated financial advice, and nothing we provide should be construed as a regulated activity under the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000;
(c) we do not carry out statutory audit and are not registered auditors; our accounting and tax services are advisory and support services only and do not constitute audit or assurance services; and
(d) where any service we provide falls within a supervised regulatory regime (including, where applicable, trust or company service provider activity under the Money Laundering, Terrorist Financing and Transfer of Funds (Information on the Payer) Regulations 2017), that service is provided subject to, and conditional upon, the applicable regulatory and supervisory requirements, and details of the relevant supervision will be provided on request and in the applicable Engagement Terms.
6.2 References to law or regulation on the Website are general background only and must not be treated as legal advice or a legal opinion.
7. Enquiries, consultations and unsolicited information
7.1 Submitting an enquiry or consultation request does not oblige us to respond, to act, or to accept you as a client, and does not create any duty of care.
7.2 Do not send confidential, privileged or sensitive information through the Website or before Engagement Terms are in place. Information submitted before an engagement is established, and before our client acceptance and conflict checks are completed, will not be treated as confidential or privileged, may not be protected from disclosure, and will not prevent us from acting for any other person, including in a matter adverse to you.
7.3 Before accepting any engagement we may carry out client identification, verification, beneficial ownership, sanctions, source-of-funds and other due diligence checks. We may decline or terminate any engagement where these are not satisfactorily completed or where acting would be unlawful or contrary to our professional or regulatory obligations.
7.4 You must not use the Website or our services in connection with any activity that is unlawful or fraudulent, or that would cause us to breach any applicable sanctions, anti-money-laundering, anti-bribery, anti-facilitation-of-tax-evasion or counter-terrorist-financing laws.
8. Acceptable use

(c) introduce or attempt to introduce any virus, trojan, worm, logic bomb, ransomware, malware or other harmful or malicious material;
(d) attempt to gain unauthorised access to the Website, the server on which it is stored, or any connected server, computer or database, including by any denial-of-service or distributed denial-of-service attack;
(e) use any automated system, robot, spider, scraper or similar tool to access, monitor, copy or extract content or data, or otherwise systematically harvest or reproduce any part of the Website, except legitimate search-engine indexing in accordance with our robots file;
(f) reverse engineer, decompile or disassemble any part of the Website except to the extent permitted by law; or

18.4 No waiver. No failure or delay in exercising any right is a waiver of it, and no single or partial exercise precludes any further exercise.
