  • Michael David Schwartz ( SHWARTS) has been found !!!!!

    Pasted in below is my email reply (long awaited) from SRA.......................

    Please accept my apologies for the delay in providing a substantive update to your previous emails.

    I can confirm that enquiries were ongoing to establish whether the “M. SHWARTS” noted on the court application documents is a solicitor or not as there are several qualified solicitors of the name ‘M Schwartz’ (and other slight variations of spelling) that could be employed or instructed by Debt Enforcement & Action Ltd. In the first instance the enquiries were to establish if the spelling on the claim forms is the correct spelling of the solicitor’s name or whether it is a misspelling that has been repeated by the use of a template document.

    These enquiries were crucial as I need to establish whether this matter should be dealt with under the Solicitors Code of Conduct (if the individual is a solicitor) or whether the matter should be treated as a criminal investigation under Solicitors Act 1974 ss. 20-21 and s.24 or s.14 Legal Services Act 2007.

    I can now confirm that I received a response from Civil Enforcement Ltd, the parent company of Debt Enforcement & Action Ltd, a short time ago today which confirmed that the solicitor in question is Michael SCHWARTZ, SRA id 118966. I can confirm that this person is a solicitor currently on the Roll of Solicitors of England & Wales and does hold a current Practising Certificate. Furthermore Civil Enforcement Ltd has informed me that they have written to the Court informing them that there was a spelling error on the claims documents issued by referring to the solicitor as “SHWARTS”.

    As such I will be today referring the reports that the SRA has received regarding these issued claim forms to the Supervision team of the SRA to consider any breaches of the SRA Code of Conduct.

    I hope that you find this update informative.

    Your sincerely

    Interesting to see it in writing that CEL is the parent company of DEAL ! The SRA ID Number supplied in my email does show That Mr Schwartz is a recognised solicitor. The form N1 Statement of Truth did not in my case give the " name of claimants's solicitors firm " I don't seem to be able to find the address of this solicitors practice when searching online, could be in-house for CEL/DEAL ?


    Update

    Michael David Schwartz
    Darryl Ingram & Co
    1-3 Heriot Road
    London
    NW4 2EG
    England


    Searching on the firm of Darryl Ingram and Co on the Law Society page it shows the names of four solicitors, Mr Schwartz is not one of them, he must have moved to pastures new.

      Re: Michael David Schwartz ( SHWARTS) has been found !!!!!

      On this subject I was just looking through images for something else, and saw this one


      Now if actually M Shwartz the solicitor was signing these court claims - he would spot and correct the spelling of his own name ?

      So is that M Shwarts 's signature ?

        A little bit of digging has led to a result regarding Mr Schwartz business.

        http://www.duncanlewis.co.uk/Michael...row-Middlesex/ ( previously at Darryl Ingram and Co )

        Looks a very decent chap.


        PS Just wondering why he omitted to enter his " Name of Claimant's solicitor's firm" , as required in the Statement of Truth on Form N1

          The one you have found is the bona fide solicitor with a "z" and not the one named on the documents with an "s"

            That was what I thought too ... I don't know about anyone else, but I get REALLY annoyed when someone spells my name wrong (and I would assume a solicitor would make sure his name was correctly written before signing anything).
            Debt is like any other trap, easy enough to get into, but hard enough to get out of.

            It doesn't matter where your journey begins, so long as you begin it...

              Re: Michael David Schwartz ( SHWARTS) has been found !!!!!

              Correct but the SRA have confirmed, having spoken to DEAL that there was a spelling mistake and the solicitor working for DEAL is this Mr Schwartz, in other words bona fide, Pasted in below is part of my email from SRA Head of Intelligence

              I can now confirm that I received a response from Civil Enforcement Ltd, the parent company of Debt Enforcement & Action Ltd, a short time ago today which confirmed that the solicitor in question is Michael SCHWARTZ, SRA id 118966. I can confirm that this person is a solicitor currently on the Roll of Solicitors of England & Wales and does hold a current Practising Certificate. Furthermore Civil Enforcement Ltd has informed me that they have written to the Court informing them that there was a spelling error on the claims documents issued by referring to the solicitor as “SHWARTS”.


              On a connected matter......my case has been transferred to my local court, called in today at the court office for a bit of advise, apparently for it to proceed further DEAL have to pay £25 court costs. Because it has been allocated for a hearing means apparently that DEAL have chosen not to agree to telephone mediation arranged by the court. Then today they had the cheek to ring and ask if I would like to make them an offer !!

                Re: Michael David Schwartz ( SHWARTS) has been found !!!!!

                Michael Schwartz in 2013 worked for a company called The Sethi Partnership in Ruislip,Middlesex which in turn were used by the CEL in Liverpool for parking tickets on council land. Whilst on the subject of parking tickets,I know of a N1 claim form being sent out by this company and in the statement of truth a Michael Schwartz is named upon it,but the form has been signed Sethi. Is this legal.(Again it appears that prior to receiving the N1,several cheap and nasty forms were sent out with seals stamped on them demanding money is this some sort of ruse by these firms?)

                  ​Some time ago I did find where he now works, and posted it on one of these forums. Now that DEAL have notified the court that there was a spelling mistake with this solicitors name, I think that the court should put the matter right by contacting all defendants to explain the situation.

                    I hope they will have to explain how Mr Shwartz checked and signed the documents before they were sent without noticing his incorrectly spelled name.

                        I would like an explanation as to why he was using someone else's handwriting when he signed them and why he used the office address of an unrelated company as his address.

                          Thank you for your email of 18 February 2016.

                          Mr Michael David Schwartz (SRA number 118966) was admitted to the roll of solicitors of England and Wales on 15 March 1979 and holds a current practising certificate with the following conditions: Mr Michael David Schwartz's current practising certificate has been made subject to the following conditions pursuant to Regulation 7 of the SRA Practising Regulations 2011:

                          Mr Schwartz shall act as a solicitor only in employment, the arrangements for which have been approved by the SRA.
                          Mr Schwartz is not to be a recognised sole practitioner, manager or owner of an authorised body.
                          Mr Schwartz shall not hold, receive or have access to client money, or act as a signatory to any client or office account, or have the power to authorise payments in or out of any client or office account or any transfers from any client or office account.
                          Mr Schwartz shall immediately inform any actual or prospective employer of these conditions and the reasons for them.
                          In these conditions the definitions are as defined in the SRA Handbook Glossary 2012.

                          Reasons/basis

                          On 24 November 2014 the SRA raised the following allegations against Mr Schwartz:

                          Whilst he was employed as a consultant by "The Sethi Partnership Solicitors" from 20 December 2012 to 1 July 2013 he failed to pay client money received on account of costs into the firm's client account in breach of Rule 14.1 of the SRA Accounts Rules 2011 and in breach of SRA Principles 2, 4, 5, 6 and 10.
                          On 24 July 2013 Mr Schwartz was arrested and subsequently charged with an offence of causing the transmission of an image/sound from prison contrary to Section 40 of the Prison Act 1952. Although he was subsequently acquitted, he failed to notify the SRA of his arrest and charge at the time in breach of Outcome 10.3 and SRA Principle 7. In view of the above and other suspected misconduct, including trading as an authorised sole practitioner in or around 2012, the above conditions have been imposed on Mr Schwartz's current practising certificate.
                          The above conditions are considered to be necessary in the public interest and reasonable and proportionate having regard to the purposes set out in Regulation 7 of the SRA Practising Regulations 2011 and the regulatory objectives and principles governing regulatory activities as contained in section 28 of the Legal Services Act 2007.

                          There are also Findings and Orders that have been made by the Solicitors Disciplinary Tribunal (SDT) against Michael David Schwartz. The reference number is TRI/688-00-CBJ. For a copy, please contact the solicitors disciplinary tribunal on 0207 329 4808.

                          Please note that if a matter is due to be heard before the SDT, details can be found on our website at www.sra.org.uk/consumers/solicitor-check.page. If this is the case, we are unable to discuss the matter with you.
