May Compliance Update:
    • Date: 4 May 2023
    • Time: 12:30 p.m.
    • Content:

Access Legal’s Regulatory Director, Brian Rogers, keeps you informed of the latest developments in the world of legal compliance.

Some recent feedback: 

“I would also like to thank you again for your Webinars, as I have no qualifications in compliance but yet I have managed (with the information in your webinars) to have received comments from both the Lexcel Assessor and in a recent mock CQS audit, that our policies and procedures and risk compliance in general are exceptional.

“She said she has never completed an audit where she has never had to put a non-compliant section in red. 

“The Lexcel Assessor said that I was in the top 1% of the firms he has assessed, and he assesses lots of larger firms.”

 

COLPs – Do you know what you’ve taken on?:
    • Date: 24 May 2023
    • Time: 12:30 p.m.
    • Content:

Compliance Officers for Legal Practice (COLPs) are a fundamental part of their firms’ compliance and governance arrangements and are instrumental in creating a culture of compliance throughout their firms, but how many of these officers are risking their careers by not understanding the full extent of their obligations and responsibilities, and the liabilities they could face if this go wrong?

This webinar is intended to provide COLPs with an insight into what this key role encompasses, and will look at:

* What a COLP and their firm agreed to when making the nomination to the SRA

* The personal character traits required of a COLP

* Conditions of authorisation

* Core responsibilities

* Areas covered by the role

* Indemnities

* Examples of COLPs who got it wrong!
