Our regulatory bodies

You're in safe hands

At Kings Court Trust, the families who entrust us to take care of their estate administration are always in safe hands. We are authorised and regulated by The Council for Licensed Conveyancers ('CLC'), who are a licensing authority who regulate certain legal services, such as those involving conveyancing and probate. Its role is to provide supervision and guidance to the businesses they regulate with a goal of promoting high quality of service and protection for clients and their interests.

The CLC ensures protection of clients by maintaining a code of conduct. They also ensure that all regulated entities hold appropriate insurance and operate a compensation fund in case a client suffers a loss. We contribute to our regulator's compensation fund, and in the extraordinarily unlikely event of us ceasing to trade, our regulator can intervene and facilitate estate completion and protection of client monies. 

Code of conduct

We act in accordance with the CLC Code of Conduct and comply with the following Overriding Principles:

• Act with independence and integrity
• Maintain high standards of work
• Act in the best interests of our clients
• Comply with our duty to the court
• Deal with regulators and ombudsmen in an open and co-operative way
• Promote equality of access and service
