The Victorian Legal Services Board and Commissioner (VLSB+C) is the regulator of the legal profession in Victoria. We are responsible for regulating lawyers through the granting of licences as well as investigating and acting on enquiries and complaints from the public. As a modern regulator, we are committed to educating lawyers about current and emerging issues to drive innovation, compliance and harm reduction, and improving the public’s understanding of the legal sector to ensure all Victorians have access to effective and high-quality justice. Our people are passionate about maintaining and protecting the rule of law by safeguarding the integrity of the legal profession. The VLSB+C’s purpose is to regulate legal practices in Victoria and promote trust and confidence in the legal profession. We are a growing organisation made up of outstanding teams on a mission to help consumers and lawyers. Over time, we have improved our great organisational culture. Our People Matter Survey results are better than the wider Victorian Public Sector by an average of 10%. As a VLSB+C member of staff, while being part of a purpose-driven organisation, you will also have access to a range of flexible working options to make an impact on your personal life. On top of this, our horizontal structure allows for more partnership with your colleagues and other teams in the business. We have an active Social Club and an engaged Well-being Committee that organises fun and positive activities promoting socialising and wellness.

The Legal Services Board (LSB) is the independent body responsible for overseeing the regulation of lawyers in England and Wales. It is a non-departmental public body sponsored by the Ministry of Justice. Its costs are met entirely by a levy on the approved regulators of the legal profession. The LSB is both politically and financially independent of Government. The LSB was created by the Legal Services Act 2007 with a statutory mandate to deliver eight regulatory objectives including ensuring that regulation in the legal services sector is carried out in the public interest; and that the interests of the consumers of legal services are put at the heart of the legal system in England and Wales. The LSB became fully active on 1 January 2010, when the new regulatory regime was activated by statute. The LSB is responsible for appointing the Legal Services Consumer Panel as well as the Office for Legal Complaints, the body responsible for overseeing the Legal Ombudsman scheme.
