Accountants aim to provide and regulate legal services


The Institute of Chartered Accountants (ICAEW) is announced that it is applying to the Legal Services Board (LSB) to become a licensing authority for Alternative Business Structures (ABS) and an approved regulator of the reserved legal service of probate.
ICAEW is currently consulting on its application, and the the deadline for responses is 7 September 2012.  The ICAEW hopes to be able to authorise firms and license ABSs within 12 months.

Based on a member survey, the ICAEW believes there is strong interest from the accountancy profession in multi disciplinary practices and ABS.
