Leggatt Review

The Leggatt Review was a government investigation into the practices and regulations of the legal profession, particularly focusing on solicitors and law firms. Conducted in 2001–2002, it aimed to improve standards, transparency, and consumer protection within the legal service industry. The review examined issues like professionalism, market competition, and the effectiveness of existing rules, recommending reforms to modernize the sector and ensure high-quality legal services for clients. Its findings helped shape subsequent regulatory changes to promote trust and efficiency in the legal system.
