Our complex legal system offers a wide variety of career options and the legal profession has seen a steady rise in diverse job opportunities. If you choose to qualify as a solicitor, you become a member of the Law Society and you will be regulated by the Solicitors Regulation Authority.
We’re the independent professional body for solicitors in England and Wales. We’re run by and for our members.

Solicitors pay their annual practising certificate fee to the Solicitors Regulation Authority (SRA). We receive around 30% of the fee to help fund our work. The rest of our funding comes from commercial activities.
The Law Society Council governs our work. Council members are elected to represent members across England and Wales, including different demographic groups and areas of law.
We use the expertise of our Council members and around 300 volunteer board and committee members to deliver the advice, support and services our members want.
