Experience of my having paid stamp duty land tax ( as did the vendors before me) on a registered title , whereby various firms of Solicitor's hand in glove with staff at Land Registry, engineered serving a different address for service and it not being corrected the many times l flagged the incorrections up. The National Audit Office audited the Land Registry title file as being correct in 2005 , while turning a very blind eye to the contents of said file holding hard evidence of the wrong address and the two identical plans of a reduced small amount of land that was meant to be 3.42 acres and 50 acres. Involving the CAB and meeting with their " solicitor " in June 2010 and his telling me it was all negligence for me to put before the court , when this " solicitor " himself had been struck off for wait for it SDLT fraud and to long released from prison. Going to court armed with the knowledge l now had was a waste of time , my acting solicitors tried to walk me into a hands down situation to get their brother solicitors off , so fine l appeared for myself , for the judge to be lied to completely. The fact is property and land is valuable and there will always be lying by members of the legal profession , because the gains far outweigh the risks. Even purchasing a registered title that supposedly has a state guarantee by and through Land Registry's indemnity ( LRA2002) becomes deeply flawed because of how easily solicitors slip through the gaps that nearly all the legal profession are well schooled to their existence. I apologise to any honest solicitors reading this
