The Solicitors Regulation Authority - Personal Injury Accreditation

The Solicitors Regulation Authority (SRA) regulates more than 100,000 solicitors in England and Wales. The SRA operates accreditation schemes in order to achieve the following:

• Ensure that clients are easily able to identify legal practitioners with proved expertise in given areas of law.
• Help clients make informed choices.
• Promote high standards in legal service provision.
• Ensure scheme members maintain relevant standards of expertise by means of periodic reselection, reaccreditation and reauthorisation.

By achieving membership of the accreditation scheme, Tinsdills have proved that they have met the rigorous standards set by the SRA.

The Investors in People standard was developed in 1990 by a partnership of leading businesses and national organisations. The standard provides a flexible framework to help organisations improve performance and realise objectives through the management and development of their people.

The Investors in People standard is based on three key principles,

• Plan – developing strategies to improve the performance of the organisation.
• Do – taking action to improve the performance of the organisation.
• Review – evaluating the impact on the performance of the organisation.

Since it was developed the standard has been reviewed every three years with the assessment criteria becoming ever more rigorous. Tinsdills has an ongoing commitment to meeting those standards.

The Collaborative Law process is a relatively new way of dealing with family disputes that resolves issues by face to face meetings between the parties and their legal advisors. It gives both parties the opportunity to become more actively involved in dealing with the issues. The greater involvement of the parties often means that issues can be resolved more quickly and with less conflict.

Collaborative Lawyers are specially trained and committed to the Resolution Code of Practice.
