Delivered yesterday the report on the review of LEAP usage by staff. (We do this for Clio as well). Link to service: hunningsconsultancy.co.uk/review-of-st... We found a huge Residual Balances figure. Better we found this than the SRA!

In this short video Ingemar gives guidance to people working as #inhouse legal - how to get your QWE confirmed: www.youtube.com/watch?v=QEtX... Specifically where you don't have an SRA regulated solicitor to sign it off to the SRA.

If you receive a Subject Access Request & don't know what to do - let us know. We can help. Just finished assisting a firm. It's scary if you're not used to it. Having someone who's used to handling this & knows how the ICO views things can help!

A review with a report on how well your firm is using it's case management system. We've had 2 orders for this service this week: hunningsconsultancy.co.uk/review-of-st... 1 firm using #LEAP & 1 using #Clio. Sensible - so they can identify how they can get more from what they've bought.

A video of a live webinar with a Q&A by Ingemar on the SQE & QWE: www.youtube.com/watch?v=-ic2... In it he explains about the #SQE route to qualification as a solicitor, #QWE & it's sign off to the SRA. Q&A session. Recorded 2 years ago, but little has changed.

Ingemar will be drafting policies today🙂 - for charities where he's a trustee. We do a lot of this for companies as well - Data Protection, AML and others as required. He'd rather be up a mountain though!

QWE - what if it was a long time ago with a break. Could that still be valid for confirmation as part of qualifying as an English solicitor through the SQE? www.youtube.com/watch?v=k92r... link to video addressing this question & practical issues.
