The Solicitors Regulation Authority (SRA) has stated that it will not take immediate action against individuals involved in the Post Office scandal. The SRA expects to reach the right outcome after the ongoing public inquiry has aired all the relevant issues. Live investigations into the actions of solicitors are ongoing, and the SRA will take action if evidence shows that solicitors have fallen short of expected standards. The SRA is keeping its position under review and will engage with the inquiry to address any issues that may require urgent action. The scandal, which has attracted significant media attention, focuses on the role of lawyers involved in the wrongful convictions of sub-postmasters. The SRA's investigation, initiated in 2021, covers multiple issues of possible misconduct. #legal #law #solicitors #postoffice #postofficscandal

Regulatory Crisis Management Expert | Leading Legal & Compliance Strategy Specialist | Trusted Advisor to CEOs and Boards | Mentor
Evolution in the enforcement of AML/CTF/CPF: now impacting law firms Simone Martin, FICA, TEP, FCG gave a great summary on this subject in her post below. The application of AML/CTF/CPF policies is not new for certain legal services, but enforcement is increasingly focused on both financial and designated non-financial businesses, including law firms. Internal Audit is a great risk mitigating tool- embrace it! We've seen a significant rise in legal services seeking AML/CTF/CPF training. However, internal audits and effective institutional risk assessments are equally crucial. Internal audits serve as proactive tools that help organizations identify deficiencies in their policies and procedures, enabling timely corrective actions. Gold Leaf’s Regulatory Crisis Management Service I find internal audits particularly rewarding as they allow me to bring a fresh perspective to clients, helping them pinpoint areas needing remediation and assisting in drafting effective procedures. The highlight of my work is our regulatory crisis project management service, where we actively develop, implement, and oversee remediation strategies to resolution. As a solutions-driven expert, this has been one of my most fulfilling service lines, helping clients achieve compliance and get the job done! For more information on our internal audit solutions and other proactive compliance tools, visit Gold Leaf Consulting Limited LinkedIn page or our website at www.goldleafbvi.com.

Receiving an enquiry from the Solicitors Regulation Authority or an investigation being commenced into the conflict of a firm or an individual within a firm is a worrying and unsettling time for any law firm or individual. The gaining of an independent expert's advice can prove invaluable in a firm or individual making the right decision to either acknowledge and accept a breach or to successfully defend incorrect allegations.
