ACF Network · Partner firms

A qualified referral channel, in line with bar association rules

ACF Compliance is used by companies who face real legal needs. We transmit to our partner firms pre-qualified case files (technical context, AI systems concerned, applicable jurisdictions, precise legal question) — so they can focus on their value: the binding legal opinion.

Why join the ACF network

Pre-qualified case files

Every Submission File arrives structured: context, AI systems, preliminary classifications, jurisdictions, precise legal question. You save 5 to 10 hours of qualification work.

100% bar-association compliant

ACF never charges on your legal fees. Your clients remain your clients, your fees remain your fees, your deontology stays intact. No sharing, no commission (French Bar rules 11.3 and 11.4).

You stay in control

Conflict check per your rules, custom quote per your fee schedule, direct payment by your client to your CARPA account. No financial intermediation by ACF.

Sectoral visibility

Reference in the ACF network, mentions in educational content, early access to regulatory updates covered by our monitoring (3 cores GDPR/AI Act/ISO 42001 + 22 mapped frameworks).

How it works in practice

1

The client uses ACF Compliance

Inventory, classification, document generation — they do 80% of the work autonomously.

2

A binding legal need emerges

Ambiguous case, missing case law, potential dispute, validation for an ethics committee or a regulator.

3

ACF generates a structured Submission File

All technical context consolidated, cryptographically signed (Ed25519 audit trail). The client picks their firm (or ACF routes per specialties).

4

You handle the case as usual

Conflict check, fee agreement, execution, delivery. Per your fee schedule, your methodology, your deontology. ACF does not intervene.

The economic model

ACF publishes a platform (Lawyer Console + Submission File standardisation). The technical terms of access to this tool are discussed bilaterally after an initial mutual qualification. They depend on firm size, estimated case volume, and partnership nature. We do not publish a price list, in order to respect premium legal industry standards and allow a discussion tailored to each structure.

Non-negotiable principle

ACF never touches a cent of your legal fees. You bill your clients directly, per your schedule and analysis. Bar Association rules 11.3 and 11.4 compliance guaranteed.

Profiles we're looking for

  • French or European firm specialised in digital law, AI, personal data
  • At least one partner or associate with documented experience on EU AI Act, GDPR, NIS2 or DORA
  • Capacity to handle at least 2 cases per month on average

Become an ACF partner firm

A first qualification with no commitment. We get back to you as soon as possible for an initial confidential discussion.

Your information remains strictly confidential and is only used to qualify partnership relevance. No marketing communication. Per GDPR, you have rights of access, rectification and deletion at any time.
