http://www.solicitorsfromhell.co.uk If you have tried to access some kind of justice for your or your relatives pain and suffering and have been let down by the legal system, the above is a site where you can have a rant. You are entitled to freedom of speech under the Human Rights act. Equally, if you are considering using the legal system to gain some kind of redress (good luck you will need it believe me....!) you might want to check out the solicitors listed to know who to avoid. 20656

Thank you so much for those extra resources. I look forward to spilling more beans about how the medico-legal scum-bags help themselves to legal aid funding (ie: all our hard-earned taxes) to lie about medical negligence and have those lies endorsed by the courts. Bearing in mind that the money that was granted to these "pond life creatures" (actually, that is too kind to pond life..) was in order to "access justice" for a 7 year old child who was left with painful and crippling injuries following negligent treatment. 20963

My freind was ripped off by an outfit in Chester Cheshire UK. The outfit is known as Aaron and Partners. My freind complained to this outfits senior partner about the sloppy slap dash service he got from one of his flock, he got nowhere. He then complained to the LSC only to then find the whole system is already rigged up by the law society (the lawyers protection squat team) to make sure you get nowhere. If you keep on trying to complain, in a further attempt to shut him up he got endless threats, the lawyers is fee to continue fabricating more and more fees and then used the court system as yet another method of beating him drowning his complaint. See more about this lot on "Solicitors from hell". The problem is these people "so called pofessionals" as they term themselves, are so arrogant they simply cannot admit whan they have made a mess of a job, Even saying sorry doesn't fit with their arrogance. At Aaron and Partners in my friends experience the client is treated as a "one off" money machine, there for draining and soaking "only" while the going is good. Once they have you trapped and your money under their desk, the atitude or "service" you get is "take it or leave, if you dont like it "tuff" but which ever we (Aarons) want your money". So thank god sites like Solicitors from hell are now there as a bench mark warning to anybody looking for a lawyer. If a Lawyer is on there, there has to be a reason. The site sends out a powerfull message, take extreme care when looking for a lawyer. Remember there is no effective regulation for the legal trade. Even the OFT the UK goverment, they all turn a blind eye to the unpleasent side of this trade. So if things go wrong you will very quickly find you are completely alone with nowhere to turn to get your money or what ever back. TAKE CARE. 20996

It all sounds horribly familiar. The arrogance, the injured patient as a "cash cow" to be milked to fill the lawyers coffers. What is so astounding is the total indifference - they know they can get away with it as, as you say, there is no effective regulation. When the legal aid barrister completely ignores all the court rules and encourages the medical expert in their lies and fabrications you know that the whole system is rotten to the core. So - no accountability as the so-called "experts" who are granted public funds to "access justice" for the injured patient do their best to subvert justice. No surprise then that we have a runaway problem with hospital acquired infection. No accountability = a mess. 21003

When all that is needed to sort all this legal trade lot out is proper see through control and regulation. What a shame these days we have to resort to Name and Shame web sites to protect and warn the public about the bad tradesmen out there. When any trade can avoid the regulation net there will always be the bad and ugly out there ready to rob their punters life savings for as little of actual value in return as they can get away with. The bad Lawyer apart from the plastic smile and pin stripe suit is effectivly just like any other odd job have a go tradesmen or builder type, he just dont wear dungarees. The main difference come with effective legal control, with a bad builder you call in trading standards who will promptly investigate your complaint. With a bad lawyer all you get is the Law society you have no other choice its the law society or nothing. Sorry I forgot! you do get a choice you can pick your bucket size the law society will then happily fill it with white wash for you. The law society have a book full of stereo answers to half fit any complaint you can come up with. No matter what. Endless letter later you are no further down the road just loads of fob offs that take you nowhere. The goverment could get rid over night of parasites like the law society and other hangers on, the goverment could replace the lot with a proper transparent form of regulation. Regulation that for a change would actually worked in the interest of the victims. What we have at present is a system rigged up to actually help the lawyers cover up what has gone on. So make a start today, write to your MP's and keep writing to your MP's then maybe one day the pressure will make one of them take the first kick of the ball. 21044

Well said! Lawyers are no different to any other trade - they should be properly regulated. They are clearly incapable of regulating themselves (via the ridiculous Law Society). My advice to anyone considering using a lawyer to "access justice" following incompetent medical procedures is: do not waste your time and money. The indignity of receiving sub-standard medical treatment is matched by the indignity of receiving sub-standard legal representation following the negligent treatment. In the unlikely event of receiving legal aid for negligent medical treatment (for instance, for your child) do not expect any kind of justice: members of the medical profession, like lawyers, are "self-regulating" this effectively means no proper regulation. Do not, under any circumstances (unless you know and trust the lawyer/expert witnesses/barrister/judge) go down the usual legal channel - you will be humiliated, ripped off, and left in an even worse position than you were before.... there may be a case for mediation/negotiation. To be honest, I would completely agree with the previous poster, don't waste your money on those crappy lawyers who just want to cover sub-standard medical treatment. 21089

With regards to the mediation/negotiation comment above - what I meant was - in certain circumstances it might be worth trying to use a professional mediator/negotiator to "access justice" or at least try to gain some kind of compensation for injuries. There are a number of advantages to this, not least the fact that you do not need "medical expert witnesses" who, in my experience: lie on oath, change their "opinions", speak rubbish and in general are a complete waste of time and money. 21091

The only MP to sit up and take notice of the appalling standards within the so called legal profession, and the Law Society's failure to address the issue, is Vincent Cable. He has in fact joined CASIA, an organisation which campaigns for government intervention into the Law Society and it's failure to act. There is a demonstration in London on 22 July 2008, to protest about crooked and corrupt solicitors. If you, or anyone else you know has been a victim of solicitor incompetance or fraud, why not attend the demo. For more info contact:- dmitch8090@aol.com 21320

Thorntons of Dundee.....sub devided their clients mansion and sold the resulting two properties onto two unsuspecting purchasers.....so piss crap was their conveyancing that the two new owners didn't know who owned what,nor what rights each had....As a direct consequence ,Thorntons client was on the receiving end of a writ in Dundee's Sheriff court in which Thorntons were accused of grossly inept conveyancing and of misrepresentation..despite the fact that,in time,a Sheriff,a Q.C.,the Law Society and theOmbudsman all agreed that Thorntons conveyancing was crap....Thorntons responded by saying..too bad.. their client should have read the deeds before signing them...and as for the fraud ....they responded to that by stating that if there was any fraud then blame the client.......no caution...no charge...no defence lawyer...no judge...no jury...no conviction...just a statement of fact if there was fraud then it was the client......Eventually,they agreed with the findings of the Law Society...and the Ombudsman...and then told their ex client to bugger off as they didn't accept the findings of the Law Society nor the Ombudsman.........a web site is under construction 21415

All submissions to www.SolicitorsFromHell.co.uk should be accompanied with a brief description of the complaint. Simply calling your solicitor ***kers or ***sers, although probably very true, it wont help others. 21641

Re: Douglas Jones Mercer - Phillip Graham of Swansea *They Dont read the documents properly. *The Solicitor does not answer your Questions. *Your instructions will be ignored. *The solicitor witholds information to mis lead you so he can make more money out of you. In doing so he will damage your case and cost you thousands. *The Solicitor will misquote you and then demand thousands of pounds. *The solicitor will abuse lien to keep information from you to obtain money. If you do not agree he will threaten you with court action. *When you complain to the firm thay do not understand your complaint. *If you ask for information they can threaten you with Police. *When you have complained to LCS they become arrogant and deny you right to information which you have paid them for which would include a copy of their signed terms and conditions. * Overall if they do not like your complaints, some of their actions as a result in my opinion could be deemed as dishonest and unprofessional. *Given that this is one of the biggest firms in Wales, beware you are not bitten as we were. *You can be sure about one thing: DJM - the firm was found in poor service by the LCS in their accounting of money and facts. *At this point they are still open to investigation. 22632

I sold my home cheap after pressure from building society - but guess what they didnt have title deeds or the 999 year lease because they had been posted to myself along with copies but didnt realise what they were. The House is sold but I still hold root of title and 999 original lease I tried talking to numerous solictors as I saw this as neglect from building society (it caused great delay in trying to change name on title deeds)before house was sold - but solictors will not go against solicitors no matter what they say, they will not look after clients interest while they do conveyancing for big estate agents and receive money from them. My house sale and to try change the name on deeds involved 3 lots of solictors whom infact knew I had deeds - as I took them into my solictors to ask what they were but rather than offer advice just covered up for each other. There is not a solicitor left in England I would trust. 22677

i am one of three executors/beneficiares. my two sisters appointed a solicitor to 'act in the administration.' He ignored their neglect of duties, theft, fraud, malicious libel and harassment, and got them granted probate with 'power reserved' to me (without my knowledge or agreement) the day after my summons to get my sisters removed was Deemed Served (Probate had 'advised' me to 'go through Chancery'.)Leeds 'didn't know' about my summons and lifted the caveats i had lodged to prevent probate being granted without me. they assured me that the grant would be revoked in court. it wasn't and neither were my sisters removed because 'they were equally named by the deceased', even though my evidence (which the judge admitted to not reading 'fully') confirmed their bad characters & ineptitude, which are grounds for removal. He agreed that my sisters should be 'strongly criticised' and said the case was for a criminal court, not a civil one, and that if i appealed i would lose again. i had represented myself and had to pay £13,000 'costs' from my share of my parents' estate (which included 'perusing' an amount of emails i had not sent) to the very solicitors who had been appointed to act in the administration of it! i refused to approve the draft estate account because it was missing monies etc but they still paid themselves and my sisters (who have taken the money and run and i don't know where they are.) My requests for the remainder of my inheritance are being ignored and i have recently been threatened with 'more litigation.' the LCS 'can't help' because i was 'never a client' ignoring the fact that i was not in a postion to instruct the solicitor, pending a police investigation! i am insisting that i had client-status and the solicitor owed a duty of care to me but they don't want to know. i have found a solicitor who told me that i should not have tried to get my sisters removed as executors but to have them disinherited instead, which is still a consideration, considering that they had no intention of ensuring the administration and distribution according to my parents' mirror wills and according to law. the police described them as despicable, but said they couldn't get involved until after the court case, when my sisters would arrested, questioned and prosecuted. my attempt to have them removed was a waste of time and money. i should have got the police to deal with them, which is not too late, as their forgeries etc are kept on file (they forged my name four times in letters bearing the same date as my mother's funeral) instructing that monies be sent to my parents' house which they had taken over, staying there for 18 months and preventing me the same access (including a family gathering to pay our last respects etc.) the solicitor agreed to my entitlement to occupatioinal rent, which i am also waiting for, and i am asking for £15,000 each compensation from the solicitor/my sisters for the the three years i have tried to resolve this matter!! 22811
