Introduction
The Financial Services Lawyers Association (“FSLA”), with the support of our membership has set up a scheme (the “Scheme”) where qualified lawyers will provide free legal advice to approved persons who are subject to disciplinary action by the Financial Conduct Authority and whose case has been referred to the Regulatory Decisions Committee (“RDC”) or which has been appealed to the Upper Tribunal (Tax and Chancery Chamber) (“Upper Tribunal”).
This legal advice relates to any written and oral submissions an authorised or approved person may wish to make to the RDC or Upper Tribunal. If accepted on the scheme, a qualified lawyer will provide you with general legal advice on your case and, if appropriate, with assistance in giving written and oral submissions to the RDC or Upper Tribunal in support of your case.
