Assessment 1: Exam

This module is designed to provide you with a working knowledge of the importance of acting with integrity and honesty when practising as a lawyer as required by the Solicitors Regulation Authority (SRA).  A solicitor’s day to day professional conduct is set by a complex combination of bespoke conduct rules as well as general legislation which protects the data and finances of the public. You will learn about the importance of applying ethics and responsibility to inform your professional practice in law, and that breach of the SRA rules can result in serious professional and personal sanction for any practising lawyer.
