@ 6 October 00:35, no. it is more subtle than ridding the place of solicitors.

It is a move towards establishing more mega firms who corner the market and then can choose not to accept instructions from the huddled masses, lest they upset insurers/employers/the authorities.

Let me put it this way: whatever you put on your website can be the subject of SRA attention: too little information; too much information; not in primary colours; not dumbed-down into language understood by a sub- 80 IQ; not in Swahili or Hungarian; not in audio format, etc., etc.,

There will soon be an opt out for us firms of 500+ employees just wait and see.

There will be an assumption that we firms are more honest or have better client care than you smaller firms providing a service locally.

If the law Society had any sense it would take the SRA to task and point out that the information is pretty meaningless. Compare your high street practice with a big commercial firm on costs? It is ridiculous.

The public have already cottoned on to Google Review and the like and they are doing it for themselves.

Would you hire a builder on the basis of what he says on his website, or what his customers, for whom he has done work, say about him?

Give me strength.
