Masterclass - Fraud Risk for Law Firms

Taking extracts from our popular Conference programme, Mercia Masterclasses offer a unique opportunity to hear from experts in specialist areas without having to attend the full conference event.

Arun Chauhan from Tenet Law looks at the risk of fraud to the legal sector and for firms in terms of their risk of loss to fraud. He reviews current fraud landscape in the UK, the scale of fraud, the evolving nature of corporate liability which captures law firms, the SRA’s expectations of law firms, stories in the sector, considering why people break the rules, organisational and people controls and how to assess your own risk and build good practice.
