    Agree that SRA probably wouldn't investigate this particular instance ,but the SRA Code 1.2 states: "You do not abuse your position by taking unfair advantage of clients or others.".

    SAR guidance includes "Special care is needed when dealing with or corresponding with an opponent who is unrepresented or vulnerable. Solicitors must make sure that such opponents are not taken advantage of, ...."

    If OP feels the solicitor has taken an unfair advantage, by all means complain.
    If others have also had reason to complain the SRA might investigate.

      I can't speak on behalf of the SRA. Neither should you
      So what is your advice to OP?
      Post 17 "consider it done and dusted"
      Post 28 "complaint then legal ombudsman route"

        I can speak from experience that the SRA don't investigate things like that. Its a fact pezza.
        the case and a complaint also arent' related.
