We help solicitors and legal practices meet their regulatory obligations with confidence by delivering clear, compliant, and practical audit support tailored to the needs of modern legal firms.
Get in TouchSRA audits are designed to ensure that law firms comply with the Solicitors Regulation Authority Accounts Rules and maintain proper controls over client money. These audits are an essential part of protecting client funds, maintaining trust within the legal sector, and ensuring that firms operate in line with regulatory expectations. At Millet Audit, we understand that managing compliance alongside the daily demands of running a legal practice can be challenging, especially for busy firms dealing with large volumes of client transactions. Our role is to provide a structured and professional audit process that helps identify risks, strengthen internal controls, and ensure that your systems and procedures meet SRA requirements. We work closely with solicitors, finance teams, and compliance officers to explain the process clearly and ensure that every stage of the audit is handled efficiently, accurately, and with minimal disruption to the operation of your practice.
All of our SRA audits are delivered on site at your practice, giving law firms throughout the UK direct, face-to-face access to specialist audit support. We work alongside your team to review accounting records, reconciliations, client account information, and supporting documentation, all while maintaining full confidentiality and professional standards. Our on-site approach has been designed to make the audit process as thorough and straightforward as possible, allowing queries to be resolved on the spot rather than through lengthy back-and-forth correspondence. We plan every visit around your practice to keep disruption to a minimum, so your staff can continue focusing on client work while we carry out the audit process around them. Throughout the engagement, our team remains fully accessible to answer questions, provide updates, and offer practical support, ensuring that your firm feels informed and supported from start to finish.

Compliance with the SRA Accounts Rules is essential for all regulated law firms that handle client money. Failure to maintain proper records, complete reconciliations correctly, or manage client accounts appropriately can result in serious regulatory consequences, reputational damage, and financial risk. At Millet Audit, we help firms understand the importance of strong financial controls and robust compliance procedures by carrying out thorough and professional SRA audits that identify areas requiring improvement before they become larger issues. Our audits are not simply designed to meet regulatory obligations but also to strengthen confidence in your firm’s financial management processes. We review systems carefully, assess the effectiveness of controls, and provide clear recommendations that can help reduce risk and improve operational efficiency. By maintaining strong compliance with the SRA Accounts Rules, law firms can demonstrate professionalism, transparency, and accountability to both regulators and clients.

At Millet Audit, we help firms strengthen these controls by providing practical recommendations and identifying areas where processes can be improved. Our SRA audits are designed to provide reassurance not only to regulators but also to partners, compliance officers, and clients who rely on the integrity of your firm’s financial systems. We understand that every law firm operates differently, which is why we tailor our audit approach to your individual procedures and risk areas. Through our thorough on-site service, we can support firms across the UK while maintaining a high level of professional scrutiny and attention to detail throughout the entire engagement.

An SRA audit is a review carried out to assess whether a law firm is complying with the Solicitors Regulation Authority Accounts Rules, particularly in relation to the handling of client money. These audits are important because they help ensure that client funds are protected and that firms maintain accurate financial records and proper internal controls. At Millet Audit, we provide professional SRA audit services for law firms across the UK, carried out on site at your practice. Our role is to review accounting procedures, reconciliations, and financial controls while identifying any areas that may require improvement. An SRA audit not only helps firms meet regulatory obligations but also strengthens confidence in the way financial processes are managed. By maintaining compliance with SRA requirements, firms can reduce risk, improve accountability, and demonstrate professionalism to both clients and regulators. Our approach is designed to make the audit process clear, efficient, and manageable for legal practices of all sizes.
Law firms that hold or manage client money are generally required to comply with the SRA Accounts Rules and may need an SRA audit depending on their regulatory obligations and operational structure. The requirements can vary depending on the type of legal services provided and the way client funds are handled within the practice. At Millet Audit, we work with a wide range of solicitors and legal practices across the UK, helping firms understand their obligations and ensuring that they remain fully compliant with current regulations. Even firms that already have strong internal procedures can benefit from independent audit support, as regular reviews help identify risks and maintain high standards of financial management. Our on-site audit process is planned around your practice, allowing the necessary reviews to be completed thoroughly while minimising disruption to daily operations. We provide clear advice and practical support throughout the process so that firms fully understand their compliance responsibilities.
