Membership of Tees Valley Law Society offers opportunities whether you are a qualified solicitor or other legal professional, or you are in the early stages of training.

Members are offered discounted rates for all of our training events, which are held locally and at the end of the working day to ensure the least disruption to you, your firm and your clients. We hold regular networking and social events where members can come together informally to discuss issues within the profession, but more importantly to share ideas.

Membership of TVLS is about offering support whether formally through involvement of the Council or more informally by sharing ideas about best practice with other firms. By becoming a member of TVLS there are opportunities to become involved in the running of the Society, whether through membership of Council or Committees or in a more informal role.

The application process is quick and simple and membership is great value. Join us today.

SRA Consultations

SRA Consultations

The Solicitors Regulation Authority (SRA) published recently two consultations as part of its 'Looking to the Future' theme:

The consultations propose far-reaching changes to the way solicitors and firms currently practise. There are concerns about the impact of the proposals on both the profession and clients and, as the representative body for the solicitors' profession, the Law Society will be submitting a full and evidence-based response to both consultations. They will share their response with members ahead of the consultation deadline. The Society's proposals can be viewed here.

The deadline for responses to both consultations is 20 December 2017
