Guidelines for completion of Law Practice Declaration & Trust Money Statement

Each law practice is required to give the Law Society a law practice declaration and trust money statement for each year ended 31 March.

If the law practice did not receive trust money (other than transit money) during the year ended 31 March, the law practice declaration should be lodged before 30 April.

If the law Practice did received trust money during the year ended 31 March, the law practice declaration and trust money statement should be provided to the External Examiner to enable the external examination report to be lodged before 30 May.

Guidelines have been prepared by the Law Society to provide guidance for the completion of the law practice declaration and trust money statement.
