Managing Partner events presents the 3rd Annual: Compliance for law firms

Law firms are facing an explosion of regulatory and compliance obligations coupled with an increasing severity of penalties for those who fail to comply. The need to invest in compliance and develop a formal compliance programme is of increasing importance, not only to address the constantly changing compliance burden but also to ensure the overall success of your firm.

• Are you therefore satisfied that your firm is complying with its obligations?
• Are you aware of the latest regulatory and compliance developments?
• Do you realise how serious the implications are if your firm fails to comply?

With developments in outcomes-focused regulation and updates to anti-money laundering regulations to name just a couple, Managing Partner’s Compliance for law firms conference will keep you abreast of all the latest developments and address the key issues and challenges you face.

Highlights include:

• The Solicitors Regulation Authority’s radical new approach to regulation and a new Code of Conduct and how firms can prepare to ensure they comply
• Anti-money laundering compliance updates including HM Treasury’s Review, The Law Society’s practice note and the case of Shah v HSBC
• Responding to HMRC’s stance on law firms highlighting legal privilege in their marketing to potential tax clients
• Assessing the risks and maintaining compliance with legal process outsourcing arrangements

With speakers from the Solicitors Regulation Authority, Barristers’ Chambers and a range of leading firms, this event will provide you with the latest compliance regulations, obligations and best practice to safeguard you and your firm.
