It also recommended that the Government consider whether those using unauthorised providers need stronger protections and that the regulatory framework be reviewed for the longer term. Transparency There are clear signs of progress. For example, many more legal firms are now providing information on price, service, redress and regulatory status to help consumers shop around. However, while the evidence suggests that some customers are taking advantage of the changes, there is still work to do as there only appears to have been a limited

Compelling case for regulatory reform, competition watchdog claims

By Michael Cross2020-12-17T12:12:00+00:00 Requiring law firms to publish information on prices has so far made little impression on competition and outcomes, the competition watchdog admitted today. In an assessment of progress since its 2016 market study, which found the legal services sector was not working well for consumers , the Competition and Markets Authority reports today that more work needs to be done on transparency. It also calls for reform of the Legal Services Act, saying the case is compelling . On transparency, the review finds clear signs of progress , saying that many more firms provide information to help clients shop around. However, while the evidence suggests that some customers are taking advantage of the changes, there is still work to do as there only appears to have been a limited impact on the intensity of competition between providers and on sector outcomes.

Society extremely concerned by BAME prosecution ratio | News

The Solicitors Regulation Authority this week said that 35% of individuals whose case concluded at the tribunal were black or Asian, despite this group making up just 18% of the practising population. Black and Asian solicitors were also far more likely to be put through a full hearing rather than reach an agreed outcome with the SRA about what punishment they should face. The disparity has prompted the regulator to commission a study looking at why such a large proportion of lawyers facing prosecution come from ethnic minorities. David Greene, Law Society president, said it was ‘extremely concerning’ that this group continues to feature disproportionately in the numbers of complaints received about solicitors, investigations taken up by the SRA and sanctions issued by the Solicitors Disciplinary Tribunal.

Commercial sets back scheme to fund criminal law pupillages 15 December 2020 Sweeting: Bar Council to create post-Brexit common law forum Eight commercial chambers have signed up to a Bar Council scheme to fund criminal law pupillages that would otherwise not be available because of the Covid-19 pandemic. They are following the lead of Keating Chambers, which in September put up £20,000 to fund a pupillage that a criminal set has had to withdraw and incoming Bar Council chair Derek Sweeting QC said has been “instrumental” in gathering support from across the commercial Bar. Giving his inaugural address, Mr Sweeting also fired a warning shot across the bows of the Bar Standards Board (BSB) over the extent to which it should look to regulate equality issues.
