History

Historical Context

The Legal Services Act of 2007 marked a significant shift in England and Wales' legal landscape by permitting alternative business structures (ABSs), allowing non-lawyers to hold management roles. This reform aimed to enhance competition and accessibility in legal services. By 2012, the first ABSs were approved, paving the way for innovative partnerships like Charleston School of Law and Genie AI, reflecting ongoing advancements in legal practice.
