Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reform of legal aid has given greater urgency to the need to apply for and achieve a franchise. This kit provides an easily accessible tool to work through to both understand and implement the changes that are necessary to achieve the standard. For those already in the process of an application, the work is available in separate sections to allow the purchase of the volume most pertinent to the stage facing the firm. Each volume makes full reference to the Legal Aid Board requirements and the update ensures that where these requirements have changed, the main volumes are brought up to date with current Board specifications. Law Society Practice Management Standards are also referred to throughout. Full of checklists, useful appendices containing explanatory examples and reference material, each volume will help your firm or organisation: identify areas of compliance; design and implement procedures to change areas of non-compliance; document these procedures toward the all-important Office Manual (covered extensively in Volume 4); address management issues that result from the franchise, but are not essential to an application.
