Small firms and sole practitioners play a vital role in helping people from all backgrounds and communities access good legal services. We want to do everything we can to support you.

Last year the SRA saw cases where cyber criminals stole more than £11m of clients’ money. Join us in London for advice and tips to help you understand the latest cybercrime threats and how to avoid them.

You will find out what the Government regulations on money laundering mean for you and what your legal obligations are.

You can also get an update on the SRA’s regulatory reform work and Handbook changes – finding out what it means for you and your law firm.

We will also present findings from the SRA’s latest diversity research – the most comprehensive of its kind in the sector – and explain why developing a more diverse culture is good for business and the profession.

Our free event, in partnership with the SRA, is now fully booked. If you would like to be added to the waiting list, please email events@sra.org.uk.
