  • My sacked solicitors contacted Tribunal to say they represent me

    I've got a case going to Employment Tribunal next week. The solicitors I was using were terrible - they never replied to emails and almost had my case struck out. I sacked them and submitted an N434 to Tribunal to say that I was a litigant in person. I notified all parties, including my previous legal representation. The sacked solicitors have contacted Tribunal today claiming that they still represent me. I've emailed Tribunal to set them straight, but what is my legal standing on this issue?

    Your legal standing is that you have terminated the solicitor's instruction.

    You may complain to the firm, and if necessary after that to the Solicitors Regulation Authority.
    Lawyer (solicitor) - retired from practice, now supervising solicitor in a university law clinic. I do not advise by private message.

    Litigants in Person should download and read the Judiciary's handbook for litigants in person: https://www.judiciary.uk/wp-content/..._in_Person.pdf
