An ambitious vision of the future
In three years time.....
(One) The Law Society of Scotland will demonstrate best practice in generating and maintaining engagement with new and future members. The Society will be a constant presence during a person's route to qualification.
(Two) A new breed of newly qualified Scottish solicitor will start to emerge. This group will have made an informed decision to enter the legal profession, having been assisted by the legal profession and the Society during their personal route to qualification.
These solicitors will be willing to take control of the profession to assist in meeting the needs of clients, the public, and their fellow members. Mechanisms will be in place for proper representation of new lawyers' interests throughout the Society.
(Three) The profession will have a positive attitude towards working with the next generation of Scottish solicitors for the ongoing benefit of the profession, with individuals regularly assisting the Society in this work.
(Four) The reputation of the legal profession will be improved because of a genuine investment in its future.
