Who is responsible for this matter?

Supervision requirements, conflict checks and continuity obligations all reduce to questions about which named person is accountable — and who steps in when they are not there.

Start with my team See how it works

“When a fee earner is off, working out who is covering their matters is a manual exercise every single time.”

The version of this we hear most often

Named supervision

Who supervises whom, recorded properly rather than assumed from seniority, because the obligation is specific.

Cover decided in advance

A named backup per matter owner, with the authority to act, agreed before the absence rather than during it.

Certificates and renewals tracked

Practising certificates, insurance and mandatory training with expiry dates that surface early rather than at renewal.

Where to start

The responsibilities this trade has to place.

Six that almost every company in this line of work has, whether or not anybody has written them down. Each needs one owner, one backup and a way of showing it happened.
