Spanish term or phrase: apartado
OK, I know "apartado" is usually translated "paragraph" or "section", but here's the problem. The document is divided into "apartados" and the "apartados" are divided into "secciones", so obviously I cannot use "section" for both. "Section" and "subsection" may be out of the question because of the terms used by the other translator working on this project.

I think I'll use "part". It's not so formally divided as to warrant "chapter".
Thanks.
