The CLC has regulated licensed
conveyancers in England and Wales for over 25 years.
More recently we have extended our regulatory expertise
to cover other legal services including probate and
Alternative Business Structures.
Our mission is to protect the public
interest, provide consumer choice and to promote
effective competition in the legal services market. We
do so by setting entry standards and regulating
providers to deliver high quality, accessible legal
services.

Our regulatory arrangements

The new approach is risk-based, concentrated less upon
compliance with prescriptive rules and more explicitly
focused upon the delivery of specific positive outcomes
for clients. Find
