Why stop (or start) at advocacy? Conveyancing gives rise to the vast majority of negligence claims, so why not see whether conveyancing solicitors are up to the job? What about company commercial solicitors? And family lawyers?

Unless the SRA is going to ask judges to comment on named individuals, it is difficult to see how the survey will be of any use. All that any judge could say will be that there are some good (or very good) solicitor-advocates, some mediocre ones and some bad ones. How does that advance the state of knowledge?
