Timed to consider Government's Review of Legal Services Regulation, this seminar saw delegates discuss the future of the legal services market's regulatory framework, and latest thinking on its possible reform.
Sessions brought together key policymakers and regulators with professional bodies and practitioners from across the legal services market, alongside industry commentators, investors, consultancies and consumer groups. Delegates evaluated what more can be done to simplify the regulatory framework whilst also maintaining appropriate regulatory oversight - with stakeholder perspectives on possible barriers to market entry, and challenges ahead for ensuring adequate safeguards for consumers. Sessions also brought out latest thinking on possible reforms to the future role and remit of professional bodies, approved regulators, licensing authorities and the Legal Services Board and Office for Legal Complaints.
