File reviews are a critical part of any firms’ compliance regime. Thorough and regular peer review of a random selection of files demonstrate that a firm’s processes and procedures are working. Employing Legal Eye to carry out independent file reviews introduces an extra layer of objectivity and neutrality to the process and frees up time for your staff.

An independent AML audit is now required by law firm regulators. Legal Eye’s AML audit service fulfils this requirement. The audit report is a vital piece of documentation to show regulators and summarises an evaluation of your AML policies, controls and procedures and set out recommendations regarding the adequacy and effectiveness of the practice’s anti-money laundering and counter-terrorist financing policies, controls, and procedures (PCPs).

Legal Eye’s Risk Management Framework is a suite of template documents written to assist firms to comply with their obligations under the SRA Standards and Regulations, Lexcel v6.1 and CQS accreditations as well as relevant legislative requirements, such as anti-money laundering, anti-bribery and data protection regulations.
