Expert advice and guidance
Setfords’ compliance team are a knowledgeable group of experts who advise on risk and compliance, regulatory issues, and compliance best practice. They’re here to provide timely advice and guidance to ensure that individual lawyers and the firm as a whole are meeting all relevant obligations.
Compliance queries
The compliance team regularly assist consultants with any queries they may have, particularly those regarding whether to act for a client and information relating to anti-money laundering compliance.
They are here to help resolve any complaints or issues that may arise from clients, liaising with those involved to reach a resolution and provide peace of mind.
Training and updates
The team offers regular updates, tips, and advice through their ‘Compliant Times’ newsletters and advisories that are sent to the whole firm.
Regular webinars are hosted on various compliance topics – which also contribute to that all-important CPD!
Completions and high-value transactions
Designated solicitors within the team approve all property completions, as well as high-value payments (those over £1000) for other practice areas.
