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.

SRA Professional Indemnity Insurance Data

SRA Professional Indemnity Insurance Data

In October last year, the Solicitors Regulation Authority (SRA) published Reflecting on Solicitors' Professional Indemnity Insurance (PII): market trends and analysis of historic claims data (available for download here). The SRA proposes that this document provides a foundation for discussion on possible reforms to the regulatory arrangements for solicitors' PII.

In their response to the SRA, the Law Society has raised concerns about how the data was collected, analysed and interpreted. Details of that response can be viewed here.
