The Legal Services Board is an independent body responsible for overseeing the regulation of lawyers in England and Wales.[1] It is a non-departmental public body sponsored by the Ministry of Justice, created through the Legal Services Act of 2007 (LSA2007).[2]
The Legal Services Board is politically and financially independent of the government. Costs are covered entirely by a levy on the approved regulators of the legal professions. Its overriding mandate is to ensure that regulation in the legal services sector is carried out in the public interest and that the interests of consumers are placed at the heart of the system.
The Board came into being on 1 January 2009 and became fully operational on 1 January 2010.
