If you're planning a professional change in 2027, now is the time to start the process.
The QLS Records and Membership Services team manages a range of practitioner and practice matters, including practising certificates, principal appointments, law practice registrations, employment changes and record updates.
As the end of the year approaches, we typically receive an increase in applications relating to:
- establishing new law practices
- principal practising certificate applications and appointments
- employment changes
- practitioner and practice record updates.
To ensure your application is processed before the New Year, please submit all required documentation to the Records and Member Services team by 7 December 2026. Applications received after this date will not be processed until the New Year.
Whether you're starting a new role, becoming a principal or launching a new practice, submitting early can help ensure a smooth start to 2027.
