Campaigns
The Law Society is amplifying the powerful collective voice of more than 200,000 solicitors by advocating on the issues you've told us matter most, including safeguarding access to justice and the rule of law. We're working to influence the government on key legislation and reform, lead the way on professional ethics, secure overseas market access and engage with regulators.
Legal aid deserts
In large areas of England and Wales, people cannot access legal aid advice for housing or community care. Our legal aid deserts campaign raises awareness of the negative impact caused by reductions in legal aid funding.

How it works
We develop policy in response to proposals from government and other organisations. We respond to consultations to influence changes on behalf of our members.
