SRA compliance and AML audit retainer services

We offer a rolling programme of SRA compliance and anti-money laundering audits for SRA regulated law firms.

On an annual basis we will review relevant policies and procedures and provide you with a red/amber/green audit report, rating each area of compliance and providing commentary on any gaps or suggested updates identified. Where we do find areas which need some work you can make use of our template wording to resolve the problems and ensure you are fully compliant. Alternatively, we can arrange to conduct the additional remedial work for you.

Example Timetable:

 

Q1 – SRA Client care audit

Q2 – SRA Systems and procedures audit

Q3 – Website and transparency rules audit

Q4 – AML & Sanctions audit (Sanctions only if you do not undertake work bringing you into scope of Money Laundering Regulation). If this is required urgently, the timetable can be amended.
