Spanish term
título
Identidad de Extranjero, required by foreigners wanting to do business in Spain) for a friend. There's a passage where one has to specify the name of one's legal representative and some kind of "título" on which the legal representation is based. The phrase goes:
*Título en base al cual se ostenta la representación:*
Is this some kind of instrument or contract signed between the solicitor and his client, or does it simply refer to the solicitor's professional title? Any hint will be much appreciated. Thanks in advance!

(Legal) Title
"4) DATOS DEL REPRESENTANTE LEGAL DEL SOLICITANTE, EN LOS CASOS DE EXCEPTUACIÓN DE LA OBLIGACIÓN DE PRESENTACIÓN PERSONAL DE LA SOLICITUD"

Legal representative's title
(written or titular) authority
