This area covers the legal framework governing safety obligations for businesses and products, including how risks are identified, assessed and mitigated under the Safety Act (where applicable) and related health and safety statutes. A solicitor in this field drafts compliance policies, conducts risk assessments, reviews supplier safety documentation, negotiates with regulators, prepares notices, and represents clients in enforcement actions and hearings. The work frequently hinges on reporting regimes, evidential standards, and the timing of regulatory steps.
What a solicitor handles in these matters
