Companies should contact corporate compliance solicitors when implementing compliance policies, responding to internal breaches or where regulators raise concerns. Solicitors design compliance programmes, deliver training and advise on remedial action to avoid enforcement.

Can a regulatory offences barrister represent me at tribunal proceedings?

Yes. A regulatory offences barrister provides specialist advocacy at tribunals and hearings, presenting legal argument, cross-examining witnesses and challenging evidence, working alongside solicitors to secure the best possible outcome.

What defences do regulatory prosecution defence lawyers commonly use?

Regulatory prosecution defence lawyers commonly rely on absence of fault, compliance with regulations, reasonable steps defences or challenges to factual accuracy. Effective defence depends on evidence, regulatory context and early case analysis.

How can regulatory defence solicitors assist with licence or permitting issues?

Regulatory defence solicitors advise on licence and permitting hearings, prepare mitigation, manage appeals and represent clients before regulators. Their aim is to protect operational permissions and avoid suspension, revocation or restrictive conditions.

What role do enforcement action solicitors play during investigations?

Enforcement action solicitors advise on enforcement notices, negotiate with authorities, gather evidence and propose remedial steps. Where required, they prepare legal challenges to avoid prosecution or contest improper regulatory action.

Why instruct a regulatory law firm rather than general counsel?

Should a website visitor seek to ascertain the nature of our establishment, Aldwych Legal, it becomes essential for us to clarify the intricacies of our professional classification. Aldwych Legal is a legal consultancy, not a traditional solicitors’ firm. As an international legal consultancy and legal support organisation, we position ourselves distinctly apart from the conventional categorisation of a regulated solicitors’ practice. It is of paramount importance to transparently disclose that Aldwych Legal’s operational framework and support services remain independent of regulatory supervision by the Solicitors Regulation Authority (SRA) and the Bar Standards Board (BSB). Our multidisciplinary team consists of legally trained professionals who operate within the framework of unreserved legal activities permitted under the Legal Services Act 2007. Where a matter requires a reserved legal activity, we collaborate with, and where appropriate introduce clients to, carefully selected external solicitors and barristers from our professional network. These regulated practitioners operate under their own authorisation and regulatory obligations. Aldwych Legal continues to deliver high-calibre legal support, strategic advisory work, and comprehensive case preparation with the same diligence and rigour expected of any premier legal service provider, while maintaining full transparency regarding our regulatory status.
