What is SRA (Solicitors Regulation Authority)?

The Solicitors Regulation Authority regulates solicitors and law firms in England and Wales. Every practising solicitor holds an SRA ID and is bound by the SRA Standards and Regulations, including mandatory PI insurance with a £2m or £3m minimum cover. The SRA maintains a free public register where consumers can verify a solicitor or firm. Scotland and Northern Ireland have separate regulators (Law Society of Scotland; Law Society of Northern Ireland).
