There is definitely an Agenda out there to rid this country of traditional solicitors for whatever reason I cannot begin to understand. If that were not the case then what else could possibly be the underlying reason for all this unadulterated junk thrust upon them over and over again in various different guises?

This sort of crap is far more likely to push ordinary, law abiding, honest solicitors (and that means most of them I think) 'over the edge' so to speak. They may well think -

" what the heck, honesty and professionalism really 'ain't worth a dime'; I can't make a decent living honestly. I am harassed every way I turn by clients, regulators, ombudsmen et all, so I may as well fiddle the books as much as I can and then bugger off somewhere with a couple of million quid from the client account when the going gets really tough and the regulators descend on me!! I have been treated so badly that I have absolutely no qualms nor conscience about doing that at all. Integrity and professionalism?- They 'aint worth a bean."

There are an awful lot of traditional high street solicitors out there who could earn a great deal more as ordinary unqualified tradesman than they do as solicitors - and without the stress, worry, fear and relentless regulation which is now thrust upon the legal 'profession'; if you can still call it a profession.

I am not a solicitor, but I have friends who are.
