Risk and Compliance Service

  • Checklist - green

    In today's evolving legal environment, risk management will be a key differentiator between providers of legal services.

    The Risk and Compliance Service has been set up to provide its members with bespoke compliance support and will help you understand risk management and legal and statutory requirements, and develop a robust and coordinated approach to compliance.

  • The service provides support and expertise through a comprehensive range of tools and information that can be tailored to your needs, enabling you to successfully address and respond to changes in regulatory, financial and client expectations.

    Our service will help you demonstrate to the SRA, the Legal Ombudsman (LeO) and other key stakeholders that your firm is focussed on the following core areas:

    • Risk management
    • Quality assurance
    • The exercise of sound professional principles
    • Improving client care and complaints handling
    • Supervision

    The service will help you to assess your firm's appropriate response to regulatory requirements and supervision, based on the SRA's risk analysis of management systems and procedures.

    Membership of the service will help you plan ahead, so that your firm is ready to respond proactively to the demands and uncertainties of operating within a fast evolving regulatory framework.
