About the Law Society
We independently discipline, educate, and regulate solicitors
The Law Society of Northern Ireland was established in 1922, when a Royal Charter was granted to solicitors in Northern Ireland to permit the setting up of the Incorporated Law Society of Northern Ireland.
We regulate solicitor education, finances, conduct, and discipline to uphold independence, ethics, and high-quality service for the public.
