English term or phrase: holding out
"Holding out" is an issue of considerable conern to the professions and the member firms (...of a network in this case).
...
"If you give the impression to the outside world that a person is a partner of yours, the law will treat that person as though se or sch is your partner. The law regards as a fact, in other words, what you have "held out" to be a fact, even if it is not."

Well, I understand what it is but cannot think of a good German translation (den Anschein erwecken...es scheint so...? ).

The network in this case, also wants to minimize the risk of "holding out claims"

agree  Derek Gill Franßen: I'm going to have to go with "Vortäuschung" in this particular context, as it seems to fit (just a bit) better. =)
