Trust Vaults Under Siege: How UK Law Firms Can Gain Control of Their Supply Chain Risk

Regain control of third‑party risk, close chambers gaps, and prove you meet rising SRA and ICO expectations across your supply chain.

As UK law firms become digital “trust vaults”, your risk perimeter now extends far beyond your own firms and systems. Every SaaS provider, e‑discovery platform and barristers’ chambers you instruct can expose you to regulatory, cyber and reputational damage.

This practical explainer shows how forward‑thinking firms are moving past “compliance theatre” to build a genuinely resilient supply chain risk programme that satisfies partners, clients and regulators alike.

Who is this for?

  • CISOs, Heads of Risk, and CIOs at UK law firms.
  • General Counsel, COLPs/COFAs and Compliance leaders.
  • Partners responsible for key client relationships and panel renewals.

Fill in the form to access the full report and gain an in-depth understanding of the evolving SRA and ICO regulatory expectations, and a guide of what “good” looks like for supply chain risk management in UK legal.
