Notes to answerer
Asker: I couldn't go with "legal", but you may be correct about "to formalize". It sounds very good to me. Unfortunatly, the one who decides (me) is the one that doesn't know, how ironic, not fair. But I really appreciate your imput. Thank you... Flavio

disagree  Marcelo Silveyra: Entiendo de dónde viene la idea, pero "legal" no es un verbo ni puede ser utilizado en la forma propuesta para la pregunta de Flavio.
