It's unclear to me what "instrumental" means here. I know it can refer to documents/filings but wonder if "procedural" might be a better fit. Thanks in advance for any insight.

independence (to act) as an agent
I can't see what a lawyer's procedural independence is supposed to mean, unless to litigate.
Rather than waffle, this phrase as well as the whole paragraph have a precise legal Mexican meaning, namely as a nominee or 'free agent' in the context or, if a corporation, as a 'vehicle' (holding co.).

Example sentence:
To be a free agent, then, is just to have a capacity for practical reason, and for action on the basis of that reason.
FREE AGENT A person whose actions are not constrained by others
