Membership of Tees Valley Law Society offers opportunities whether you are a qualified solicitor or other legal professional, or you are in the early stages of training.

Members are offered discounted rates for all of our training events, which are held locally and at the end of the working day to ensure the least disruption to you, your firm and your clients. We hold regular networking and social events where members can come together informally to discuss issues within the profession, but more importantly to share ideas.

Membership of TVLS is about offering support whether formally through involvement of the Council or more informally by sharing ideas about best practice with other firms. By becoming a member of TVLS there are opportunities to become involved in the running of the Society, whether through membership of Council or Committees or in a more informal role.

The application process is quick and simple and membership is great value. Join us today.

Professional Ethics Under Pressure

Professional Ethics Under Pressure

Can lawyers be competitive and act ethically? How do individuals and firms strike a balance between rule of law and reputation?

A panel of experts from the financial, energy, legal and telecommunications sectors discussed these issues and more at a recent event chaired by Robert Bourns, President of the Law Society, and jointly hosted with the Institute of Business Ethics.

The Law Society have put together a highlights film from the event, free to view on the Professional Development Centre. More ethics advice and guidance from the Law Society is available here.
