Professional Undertakings - A Bite Size Update & Refresher

Introduction

Widely regarded as the oil in the legal machine, the enforceability of undertakings - and against whom - has become a vexed question, both as a result of Harcus Sinclair v Your Lawyers and that solicitors can now act for employers outside the auspices of the SRA.

This short webinar will provide an overview of the current state of play regarding the vital position of professional undertakings and help you understand what to look out for when giving and receiving undertakings in the future.

This pre-recorded webinar will be streamed at 12:30pm on Tuesday 7th February 2023 and will remain available to view by delegates who have registered by then for 90 days.
