The new Code of Conduct - November update to LPC Answered Core Modules

The new SRA Standards and Regulations – or “StaRs” – come into force on 25th November 2019. This represents a radical overhaul of the regulation of solicitors and law firms, with the old Code of Conduct being entirely rewritten.

That means we’ll be releasing an updated edition of our LPC Answered Core Modules guide to reflect the new StaRs and Codes of Conduct. Our forthcoming edition will include updated Professional Conduct and Regulation and Accounts chapters, with updated references to pervasive professional conduct points in the other chapters.

We don’t yet have a set release date for the latest edition, but expect it to be late November 2019 (or early December at the latest). Either way, don’t let that stop you buying our LPC Answered Core Modules guide now – when the updated edition is ready we will email round an updated Conduct chapter to all the students who have bought our 7th edition so far.

The new Law Answered blog

Welcome to our new Law Answered Blog.

When we’re updating our guides we inevitably have to make judgement calls as to what should be included and what left out. Without doubt individual law schools will sometimes make calls different from ours, but we hope and expect that we’ll be covering most of your courses.

Some of the law which doesn’t actually make the cut into the guides is still quite interesting and we thought we’d start to share some of that with you. Who knows, these blogs may even help you with your studies too.
