Field Fisher Waterhouse appointed to the SRA’s new disciplinary panel

08 June 2009

Field Fisher Waterhouse LLP has won a place on the Solicitor’s Regulation Authority’s (SRA) revamped disciplinary proceedings panel. The new panel replaces the previous arrangement where the panel was made up of individual advocates. 

Field Fisher Waterhouse will serve an initial three year period and will provide a variety of legal services including advising on prosecutions before the Solicitors Disciplinary Tribunal (SDT), appeals against SDT decisions and regulatory appeals.

Tom Rider, partner in Field Fisher Waterhouse’s Public and Regulatory Law Group, is the lead partner, working with associate Rosemarie Paul. The firm has a leading reputation advising on professional regulatory work with other clients, including the General Medical Council (GMC), the General Dental Council (GDC), and the General Teaching Council for England (GTC).

Lead partner Tom Rider said: “We are delighted to have been appointed to the panel and look forward to working with the SRA over the coming years to advise them on disciplinary matters.”
