My dad had a big problem with solicitors when he started to issue a claim against Abbey National.(posted 7195 days ago)Eventually he understood that no solicitor that is involved in conveyencing work will ever issue a claim against a bank or building society. The banks and Bs operate a blacklist of solicitors that they will mess about. All the solicitors that deal with banks and BS's know this, and that is why they never ever become involved in legal disputes involving banks or BS's.
My Dad was forced to dismiss several solicitors before he encountered a solicitor who professed to not do any conveyencing work. But the solicitor then screwed him over fee's anyway.
In many ways you are better off being a LIP when you sue a bank or BB's.
This country has a hell of a legal system.
