Here’s the most recent, notable coverage and regulator updates involving PM Law solicitors (PM Law group)—primarily tied to the firm’s sudden closure in early February 2026 and the SRA intervention that followed.
What happened (core developments)
- The Solicitors Regulation Authority (SRA) intervened into 11 firms in the PM Law group after identifying a risk to client interests following the unexpected closure.[1][3]
- The SRA later reported “potential fraud” and that client money is missing.[2]
- The SRA also described operational steps taken after the intervention, including taking possession of files and money, contacting clients about urgent matters, and notifying courts.[4]
Latest client-facing update (SRA)
- As of 7 April 2026, the SRA published information for clients of PM Law and associated firms, indicating they’re continuing to act to protect client interests in the intervened practice.[8]
Media context (what people are experiencing)
- Reporting has highlighted the impact on property transactions and other ongoing matters, including difficulties some clients report when trying to recover funds and case files.[5]
If you tell me what you mean by “PM law solicitors” (e.g., PM Law Ltd / PM Law group, or a specific trading name/region), and whether you want UK-wide regulator updates or your specific situation (e.g., conveyancing vs PI claims), I can narrow this to the most relevant “latest news” items.
