Legal Instrument Examination
Our staff can provide the required examination of legal instruments submitted by applicants seeking permission, registration, licensure or other action by, or from the Government. Each examination provides a thorough review of the legal instrument and supporting documents to determine their adequacy and completion in meeting your requirements. In order to come to an accurate determination, our staff will search records to ascertain the possible existence of conditions that would affect approval. If the application is not granted, our professional staff will notify the applicant and advise the party on how requirements may be met or provide information on any alternative options. If necessary, we will obtain any additional data or information to reconcile discrepancies between the applicant and the agency. Our staff is committed to arriving at all decisions within a timely manner and in compliance with all agency deadlines.
