The Society of Law Accountants in Scotland exists to promote the education and advancement of individuals with a view to assisting them in becoming proficient in all aspects of law accounting.
Our objective is to provide an organisation for people employed in accountancy work in Scottish law firms, in which they can meet with others with a view to the interchange of opinion on questions of practice. Our regular branch meetings give facilities for members to hear talks by various speakers and for organising discussion groups.
The Society's classes, assessed by an appointed Board of Examiners, now emphasise Cashroom Accounting, Executries, and Feeing, each taught over a term. The one-year course allows students to choose one, two, or all three modules, with completion of all three modules granting eligibility for Associate Membership with The Society of Law Accountants in Scotland.
