Manor Law has a zero tolerance policy towards bribery and corruption. We are committed to:

• Conducting business in a manner that complies with applicable laws and is consistent with the highest ethical standards including, among other things, standards intended to prevent bribery and corruption; and
• Using our best endeavours to ensure that those who perform services for and on behalf of Manor Law, including employees, contractors, counsel and agents, are aware of and share our commitment to conducting business ethically.

Manor Law is subject to the UK Bribery Act 2010 in respect of its activities and has adopted an Anti-Corruption Policy. The policy is based on an assessment by Manor Law of the external and internal bribery risks that face us, and reflects fundamental standards that Manor Law expects those who perform services for us and on our behalf to abide by when acting on our behalf.

Manor Law will not use third parties or intermediaries to engage on its behalf in unethical practices that would be prohibited under any applicable laws if undertaken by Manor Law. Manor Law expects that all third parties and intermediaries that it engages will conduct themselves accordingly when acting on behalf or for the benefit of Manor Law.

Our anti-money laundering policy is based on the highest standards that are required in the jurisdiction of England and Wales. Manor Law conducts client due diligence enquiries on each new client and persons connected with them and conducts ongoing monitoring of existing clients. Where necessary for these purposes, we seek relevant information from third party data suppliers. Where individuals have supplied personal data for this purpose, we will only use it for that purpose and will keep it only as long as the data protection legislation requires.

Manor Law also has internal procedures to ensure that any suspicions of money laundering are reported to the appropriate authorities where there is an obligation to do so. Lawyers and other relevant staff are provided with training on these issues.

Manor Law has professional indemnity insurance cover limited to £3,000,000. Further details can be obtained from the Managing Director.

The UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights which were unanimously endorsed by the Human Rights Council in 2011 state that all business enterprises have a responsibility to respect human rights. As a company we have agreed to support and respect internationally recognised human rights, both as part of our commitment to the UN Global Compact and consistent with the UN Guiding Principles.

Manor Law opposes all forms of slavery and human trafficking and is committed to taking steps to ensure that these do not occur in its business or in its supply chains. In our firm we create a safe, healthy and inclusive workplace with a strong culture of collaboration and respect for others.
