In-house practice is an increasingly popular career choice, both
for new entrants to the profession and for individuals moving away
from traditional private practice. The opportunities are exciting
but the challenges of being a regulated individual in a different
environment should not be underestimated. In-house counsel must be
able to identify and comply with the non-negotiable regulatory and
ethical duties expected of them by the Solicitors Regulation
Authority. Whereas private practitioners have the benefit of safety
in numbers in a team environment with common professional
objectives, this is not automatically the case for in-house
counsel. The latter might be used as the ethical voice or heartbeat
of their organisation, but it is not uncommon for them to be
regarded as the facilitators of advice about how to find ways round
obstacles, or to shoulder the blame if there is criticism. Being an
in-house solicitor requires an understanding of tensions that might
not exist in private practice and knowing when to challenge
inappropriate behaviour. This book provides guidance on essential
regulatory and ethical knowledge. The challenges of in-house
practice are discussed with commentary on the tensions that might
exist such as when the business is global or when business risks
are not managed properly. There is analysis of team leader
responsibilities and a discussion of the pinch points of being
employed as lone lawyer. It also contains contributions from
thought leaders and experts, and case studies and examples of
disciplinary action are used to support your understanding of this
essential topic.
