The Law Society : ウィキペディア英語版
Law Society of England and Wales

The Law Society of England and Wales (officially named The Law Society) is the professional association that represents and governs the solicitors' profession for the jurisdiction of England and Wales. It provides services and support to practising and training solicitors as well as serving as a sounding board for law reform. Members of the Society are often consulted when important issues are being debated in Parliament or by the executive. The Society was formed in 1825.
The Hall of The Law Society is at 113 Chancery Lane, London but it also has offices in Cardiff (to deal with the Wales jurisdiction and Assembly) and Brussels, Belgium (to deal with European Union law).
A president is elected annually to serve for one year. The current president is Jonathan Smithers.〔(Law Society website )〕
Barristers in England and Wales have a similar professional body, the General Council of the Bar, commonly known as the Bar Council.
==History==

The London Law Institution, the predecessor to the Law Society, was founded in 1823 when many London Solicitors came together to raise the reputation of the profession by setting standards and ensuring good practice. 'London' was dropped from the title in 1825 to reflect the fact that the Law Institution had national aspirations.
The Society was founded on 2 June 1825, when a committee of management was appointed. The Society acquired its first Royal Charter in 1831 as The Society of Attorneys, Solicitors, Proctors and others not being Barristers, practising in the Courts of Law and Equity of the United Kingdom.〔(Law Society Royal Charters )〕 A new Charter in 1845 defined the Society as an independent, private body servicing the affairs of the profession like other professional, literary and scientific bodies. By further Royal Charter in 1903 the name of the Society was changed to simply "The Law Society". The Society first admitted women members in 1922.〔(Law Society Website History Section )〕
In July 2013, the Association of Women Solicitors (AWS), a national organisation working with and representing women solicitors in the United Kingdom, merged with the Law Society to form its Women Lawyers Division. Although merged, the AWS will operate separately from the Law Society.
