OverviewThe introduction of the Legal Services Act 2007 means that anyone who is regulated by the SRA, including those who work for non-solicitor employers, can provide legal services. This means that in-house lawyers will need to be more aware of the requirements of the SRA Handbook and the opportunities the new regime will bring. This practical book outlines the compliance requirements that in-house lawyers must adhere to and examines the practical changes in-house lawyers may need to make in order to comply with the Act.
