1649th Edition: LawNewsIndex is a UK based Law, Justice, Legislation & Rights related daily news & legal articles archive brought to you by TheLawMap

FOCUS OF THE DAY: New Conservative government must act quickly to clarify UK-EU position. Only the UK is capable of starting the process of divorcing from the EU by triggering article 50, but a second referendum cannot be ruled out, legal experts have clarified. Since the Leave vote was delivered last week, the UK and EU have been locked in stalemate over activating the formal process for a Brexit to occur, with leaders on both sides standing firm.

30th June - Law News

1648th Edition: LawNewsIndex is a UK based Law, Justice, Legislation & Rights related daily news & legal articles archive brought to you by TheLawMap

FOCUS OF THE DAY: Unregulated legal services providers are generally cheaper and more innovative than regulated law firms, but consumers need to understand the risks of using them, Legal Services Board (LSB) research has found. The conclusion of its research into the unregulated market was that small scale of the problems it caused meant the oversight regulator would not take steps to introduce regulation.
