Preparing for the auditors—in-house lawyers

Preparing for the auditors—in-house lawyers One of the key dates in your organisation’s calendar is the date of the annual audit. An important part of the auditors’ role is to ensure that your organisation’s processes are fit for purpose. Central to that is your organisation’s approach to legal matters and legal risk. As an in-house lawyer, you need to prepare for the auditors’ visit because inevitably they will want to meet with you. While each audit firm has its own standard set of questions for in-house lawyers, the questions tend to follow certain themes, eg: • your risk register • litigation • applicable law and regulation • contracts • intellectual property (IP) • legal work process • your knowledge and experience Since joining your organisation, you have hopefully had the opportunity to meet with the key directors and heads of function. Those meetings will have given you the opportunity to find out more about many of the issues the auditors will be interested in. See Practice...

Is it acceptable for a liquidator and the only creditor in an insolvency situation to be represented by the same solicitor? Or is this a conflict?

Is it acceptable for a liquidator and the only creditor in an insolvency situation to be represented by the same solicitor? Or is this a conflict? Both insolvency practitioners (IPs) and solicitors are members of professions that are governed by separate ethics codes. Both IPs and solicitors, before accepting an appointment or an instruction, should carry out documented procedures to ensure that there would not be a conflict of interest or breach of their ethics code in accepting the appointment or instruction. The question does not specify whether the conflict concerned would be for the solicitor or the IP and although both issues are considered, this answer deals primarily with the IP and whether the IP would have a conflict of interest. The insolvency ethics code sets out a framework approach that is to be followed in all cases to establish whether there is a conflict of interest. The IP should first of all assess whether there are any threats to the fundamental principles of integrity,...
