#LSA10: Reflecting on 10 years of the Legal Services Act - An Introduction
On the 30th October 2017 the Legal Services Act 2007 (LSA) reaches its 10th anniversary. That seems an appropriate moment to pause and reflect on what has happened over the last 10 years and how the LSA has shaped the legal market in England and Wales and beyond.

We will also be looking forward to the next 10 years.
