SRA New Approach to Regulation Update – 20 May 2016
The focus of the talk will be on how regulation can better support in house solicitors
The legal services market is changing fast. The SRA regulate more than 160,000 solicitors and 10,400 organisations. It’s vital that their regulation keeps pace with those changes.
The public, businesses and others are looking for the right legal services at the right price. Ways of finding, accessing and using services are changing. Providers are responding by offering new services in new ways and through new business models.
The regulation must provide appropriate protections without hampering innovation that drives a competitive and effective legal sector.
Chris would like to look at what the SRA do with fresh eyes.
