Managing firm members

Inviting members

Only owners and admins can invite new members. Open My Firm and use the invite section: generate a code (single-use by default), send a direct email invitation, or paste a list of addresses for bulk invites. The invitee enters the code under *Join an existing firm* in the firm wizard, or clicks the link in the email.

Invitees must already have a lawyer account on LeyApp. Codes and invitations expire after 7 days. A lawyer who is already in another firm has to leave it before the code is accepted.

Roles inside a firm

• Owner — full control: transfers ownership, manages every admin, and can leave the firm only once nobody else is in it. Only one owner per firm.
• Admin — can invite/remove members, edit firm details and policies, but cannot transfer ownership.
• Member — appears in the public firm profile, can set their own availability and handle their own bookings. Cannot change firm-wide settings.

Changing roles

Owners can promote a member to admin or demote an admin to member from the Members list. Transferring ownership requires the current owner to confirm and re-authenticate.

Removing a member

Removing a member from the firm does not delete their LeyApp account or bookings. It only disassociates them from the firm profile. Active bookings stay with the lawyer, not with the firm.

Leaving a firm

Any member can leave from the **Leave firm** card at the bottom of My Firm; active bookings keep running for a 30-day grace period. If you are the owner you can leave only when nobody else is in the firm — the firm page is then unpublished — otherwise transfer ownership first.

One firm at a time

A lawyer can belong to only one firm on LeyApp. This mirrors the Spanish bar rule that associates each colegiado with a single registered practice. To move firms, leave the current one first.
