Our accreditation is a mark of excellence in practice, recognised by the public, fellow members, the judiciary and the Legal Aid Agency.

Maintaining your accreditation will:

  • Mark you out to potential clients as a trusted expert in your field.
  • Ensure you’re identified as a specialist on Resolution’s member search so potential clients can find you easily.
  • Give you access to promotional toolkit, including a logo and free leaflets, to help you market yourself and promote your expertise.
  • Demonstrate your professional development.

Accreditation lasts for a period of three years. To reaccredit, you must:

  • Be a Member of Resolution.
  • Submit a reflective case account in each of the areas you hold accreditation held (max. 2,100 words per account).
  • Submit a suitably anonymised client advice letter written by you from a case in each of your specialist areas.
  • Provide a summary of your continuing learning, development and competence for the past three years.
  • Provide details of a referee.

Signing up for Reaccreditation and paying for it, will automatically mean you agree to the following: There are no matters affecting my competence or fitness to be held out as an accredited specialist, or which could bring the association into disrepute of which Resolution should be aware.  I have read and understood the information in the Prospectus about when and how the papers will be sent to me and how I will be expected to return them and the information about maintaining accreditation. I understand if Resolution does not receive my papers by the specified deadline I will forfeit my fee and I will have to apply again if I wish to become accredited.
