Companion to the Solicitors Code of Conduct

Also Available - The Solicitors' Code of Conduct 2007

The Solicitors' Code of Conduct affects all solicitors in England and Wales. It introduces key changes in a number of areas, including client relations, conflicts of interest, client confidentiality, supervision and management.

This companion to the code helps practitioners understand the nature of the changes and to counter the practical problems that may occur. Easy to navigate and comprehensive, this companion resource offers:

• A chapter on each new rule, following the same structure as the Code for easy cross-referencing
• Analysis of the new rule compared to the old in order to identify differences
• A chapter highlighting areas covered in the previous set of rules but not covered in the new Code.
