What Happens If a Solicitor Faces SRA Strike Off or Suspension?

Being struck off or suspended by the SRA can be career-ending for a solicitor or highly damaging for a law firm. The SRA enforces strict disciplinary measures for breaches of its regulations, including misconduct, dishonesty, and failure to meet professional standards.
