Few things are apt to cause more confusion, fear and loathing for less good reason the legal status, as regards itself, of a company’s various [[branch]]es. This is apt to confuse [[muggle]]s, which on a busy day can be intensely frustrating for [[Mediocre lawyer|a busy solicitor]], but on a slow one is fertile grounds for a little sport at the expense of our non-magical friends. You will be surprised how often one is asked to review, approve or even sign a contract, [[keep-well agreement]] or [[service level agreement]] between a branch of a company and its head office. The best response is just to sign it, but purists will find this at least aggravating and in many cases a betrayal of the attorney’s sacred oath.
If a [[company]] is a person, think of a branch like an arm or a leg.
