Portuguese term

Configuração jurídica

Portuguese to English Law/Patents Law: Contract(s)
Hello

I am translating a Brazilian agreement between a law firm and my organisation´s Brazilian office, for provision of legal consultancy and related services. The contract says consultations can include matters of the 'configuração jurídica' of the organisation - and I am unsure what this referrs to. "Legal status" does not seem to be correct here but I have never heard of "legal configuration" in English, and my legal dictionaries are not offering any suggestions...

Many thanks!

Nadia Alves (asker) Sep 8, 2009:
more info I have just found a translation of configuração jurídica on the EUR-lex site using 'legal form' - i.e. what type of organisation it is in legal terms. Something like this may be more appropriate as it here refers to a company/organisation rather than a case. Any thoughts on this?
Thanks!
