Law Society Fidelity Fund. The Law Society maintains the Lawyers’ Fidelity Fund for the purposes of providing clients of lawyers with protection against financial loss arising from theft by lawyers. The maximum amount payable by the Fidelity Fund by way of compensation to an individual claimant is limited. Generally, the Lawyers’ Fidelity Fund does not cover a client for any loss relating to money that a lawyer is instructed to invest on behalf of the client. Where we instruct a barrister on your behalf you authorise us to pay the barrister’s invoices from funds paid to us by you or any other party for that purpose. We do not give financial advice to clients. If we are acting as a trustee personally or through a trustee company, we do not give financial advice to the trustees of that trust.
