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.
HMRC released figures on 28 July showing the impact of the additional 3% stamp duty land tax ( SDLT) charged to buyers of second homes and buy-to-let property. Whilst this has produced more revenue, it also seems to have produced some difficulties for solicitors and their clients.
The Law Society has prepared a survey to assist with their discussions with HMRC - if you wish to have your say then please complete the survey no later than 29 August.
