Solicitor standards

Solicitors in Scotland are expected to observe high standards of professional conduct. Having standards that are clear and understandable is good for both solicitors and clients. It lets the client know what standards to expect and lets the profession know what is expected of them.

The booklet on the right explains what the standards are and the differences between standards of conduct and standards of service.
