SRA Update
Non-lawyer partners—what about their character and suitability?
SRA Update Issue 4 – January 2008
We have opened a consultation on the character and suitability of non-lawyer managers. We would like to hear from a wide range of respondents. The consultation may be of interest to non-lawyers in your practice who could take up this opportunity allowed by the recent Legal Services Act.
This is a first, important step in removing long-standing restrictions on the running of solicitors' practices. To have your say, visit consultations.sra.org.uk.
