Acting on Your BehalfI have recently been informed by a conveyancing client that he had just bought a Latin dictionary, from which he learnt that the word 'solicitare' means 'to badger' - so that is what he wants me to do to his dilatory builder.For good measure he added that the Latin for 'lawyer' is 'actor' which I suppose explains why we are said to act for our clients.M Little, Goldingham Solicitors, Stroud, Gloucestershire
