Fines Loom For Transparency Non Compliance

There is a stark reminder this month in the Law Society Gazette for firms regarding compliance with the SRA transparency rules which were implemented almost 3 years ago now.

The SRA is now in the process of writing to around 8000 firms requesting confirmation that they are complying with the rules, meaning firms’ compliance officers must confirm that their website is in full compliance of the rules and display the SRA clickable logo.

Firms must complete a mandatory declaration, even firms who do not have a website are required to complete the declaration, and the deadline for completion is looming on 27 August 2021.
