Re: Dodgy solicitors
LEO would be the right people for a complaint about your solicitor if you want help to resolve an issue. I think you were looking more at this alledged discrimination as a regulatory issue ( which would be the SRA ), and there isn't really a resolution for your complaint via the Leo ( you don't want to force a solicitor to take on your case I'm sure, and you haven't lost any money to have refunded ).
Have we actually discussed the case you were trying to get a solicitors firm to take on yet on here?#staysafestayhome
Any support I provide is offered without liability, if you are unsure please seek professional legal guidance.

Re: Dodgy solicitors
The Legal Ombudsman can award compensation and, from what I gather, they have significant powers (awards of up to 50k).Originally posted by Amethyst View Post
Yes, we have discussed one of them on here.Comment

Re: Dodgy solicitors
Not necessarily but regardless discrimination is relative and so you'd need to establish the level of service that they provided to others. That's not realistically acheivable.Originally posted by heisenberg View PostComment

Re: Dodgy solicitors
I just got some clarity from the SRA. It appears they can investigate matters of discrimination but have just tried to fob me off probably to save themselves some work.Comment

Re: Dodgy solicitors
The difference it seems is a solicitor for a claimant and alledged misdeeds, as I am not the claimant and hired the so called non existent solicitor in one case, and a real solicitor in another then they all and sundry passed the buck between all the regulators etc incl BarristersOriginally posted by heisenberg View PostComment

Re: Dodgy solicitors
This is hilarious...
The firm I suggested could be subjecting me to unfavourable or less favourable treatment has just accidentally copied me into an e-mail whilst discussing my letter before action. They have essentially provided me a with a smoking gun.Comment

Re: Dodgy solicitors
Is your original disability discrimination case something that could be done through the small claims court, or is your wish for an amount of compensation higher than the small claims court? The other thing I would ask is: have you gone through a mediation process yet? I'm just wondering if you can circumvent a need for a solicitor at all? In the scenarios I've mentioned, you can do that.Comment
