Legal Services Board
The Legal Services Board (LSB) is an independent body in the United Kingdom responsible for overseeing the regulation of legal services. Established under the Legal Services Act 2007, its primary role is to ensure that legal services are delivered in a way that is accessible, efficient, and of high quality. The LSB works to promote competition and protect the interests of consumers in the legal sector.
The LSB collaborates with various regulatory bodies, including the Solicitors Regulation Authority and the Bar Standards Board, to implement policies and standards. It also conducts research and gathers data to inform its decisions, aiming to improve the overall legal services landscape for both providers and clients.
