Compliance for Large Law Firms - What Should Be on Your Agenda?

Introduction

Larger law firms face a more complex compliance challenge than smaller firms, due to their size, due to deeper and more complex specialisms and the less developed practical knowledge about the evolving regulatory framework of bigger teams in practice.

Presented by compliance expert Paul Bennett, this practical webinar is designed to help larger law firms embed best practice and to learn from the mistakes of others. It will focus on taking the lessons from caselaw and SRA investigations and using that material to assist larger law firms in creating a compliance to-do list.
