Mazur v Charles Russell Speechlys: A Reminder on the Importance of Supervision and Clarity in Legal Practice
Understanding the Case
The recent case of Mazur v Charles Russell Speechlys has highlighted how important proper supervision and clear communication are within the legal process.
In this case, one side questioned whether an individual working on a matter should have been a qualified solicitor. The court clarified that only authorised solicitors can conduct litigation – but also recognised that unqualified staff can still assist, as long as they work under close supervision and guidance.
This decision reinforces an important point: even when several people are involved in a legal case, the quality and accountability of work must remain consistent under the supervision of a qualified solicitor.
